Meet Tami, a paediatrician. When she found out she was #pregnant, getting her maternal vaccinations was a priority. 🤰
She advises other expecting mothers to get their #RSV and other maternal vaccines to give their #baby the best protection. 👶

🚨We’ve heard that doctors affected by the MRCP error are being told they will not be able to progress their HST applications.
Urgent advice: do not withdraw any application & continue applying if you are affected. If you are prevented from applying keep emails and screenshots.

Called out NHSE’s narrative that it’s possible to provide safe care in corridors. Used strong language putting our statement together, reflecting @RCollEM members’ and colleagues’ strength of feeling on this matter. Degree to which corridor care is normalised is dumbfounding
@Sadik4Pharmacy @DanAldridgeWSM The UK has one of the worse parental leave systems in Europe.
Will you back the @dadshiftuk campaign for improved parental leave?

For F1s planning a family, be warned! If you conceive in the next couple of months then you won't yet qualify for NHS maternity pay.
I've seen foundation doctors miss out on this by only a few days and it's worth THOUSANDS of ££ so wanted to give you a heads up 👶🏽

760,000 people waiting for gynae appointments.
Yet there are 7 doctors applying for every 1 gynaecology training post.
1860 doctors this year applied to become gynaecologists and did NOT get a job.
This issue is not unique to gynaecology.

This is a study about increasing participation in cervical screening for marginalised women - Sophie is looking for HCPs involved in screening for a focus group to review some proposed campaigns - excellent opportunity for internal CPD points!
