Moved to a different deanery today for higher specialist training. Decided to go for hospital accommodation due to personal circumstances - all sorted in advance. Checked in... stained walls, mold behind the bed, flickering lampshade, an overwhelming sense of dreariness & gloom.

PACES. £650 out-of-pocket for a mandatory exam, weeks of unpaid out of hours practice, 2 hours of assessment under scrutiny, 6 weeks of anguish waiting for result, all to be failed on what feels like pedantry. Not only a social, psychological, emotional and physical cost...

@Dr_Done_ As per the tribunal, the entire assessment for patient C needs to be repeated including a full physical exam + collateral Hx PLUS requesting Ix/prescribing Abx. So how does this make the med SpR's, who's constantly juggling, job any easier?

@DiedSuddenly_ @VigilantFox No, these patients would have died much, much earlier had they not been put on a ventilator. Stop negating the knowlege/experience of actual healthcare professionals who are already traumatised by Covid. I cared for many patients who rapidly died who were NOT put on ventilators.

I remember the feeling when I was first handed a list of prescriptions, TTOs & scan requests for patients I hadn't seen, by a PA. The role is intended to support, but realistically at the moment, a ward cannot be staffed solely by a PA. I feel it explains many teething issues.

Oh here is also the list of jobs I was given by the reg level PAs when I was busy on call holding the bleep. So they can go to theatre/clinics ASAP. I had seen none of these patients. And I had to prescribe all these. Not from a consultant or a doctor but a PA.

Simultaneously, PAs can do clinics/procedures/theatre/endoscopy. I think that rightly raises the Q: why no scope to do the perceived basics, but to do highly advanced procedures? & I feel so awkward saying this, because I've worked with some great PAs, some of whom are friends.

Cannulating an anaesthetist is nerve-wracking but simultaneously quite handy... they selected an appropriate vein, then immediately compressed proximally so it wouldn't bleed back & cause a mess. If only every patient made it so easy. 👍🏽

@iDrSunny @KhyjaMccalla @JoshuaSoane @medicalmodelbri In my view, 2 years of training is just not enough to learn to Dx and Rx undifferentiated complaints. Patients don't present according to a matrix of conditions, unfortunately. My worry is that the degree engenders a sense of hubris that this is possible.

@Larocatain @Saints_Mike7167 @notcapnamerica I remember a friend of mine (white), said "I just don't trust her. At all".... I was like, why? And what makes you trust any other celebrity? There is definitely a subterranean instinct against her.

@juliaisobela I get so annoyed whenever I read her tweets, but can never bring myself to start arguing with her. Not everyone with trauma experiences psychosis, & vice versa. Feel like she's never been on an acute inpatient psychiatric ward & seen how life-changing antipsychotics can be.

@wendyburn @cannula_service @timricketts_ @actor_joshua @DrEilidhMaria @Xeon4f145d96s1 @Dr_Done_ But according to this PA, their role is directly replacing that of a doctor's. What do you make of that?

Rotational training, exploitative rotas, pay erosion, intensifying competition for training opportunities, vast numbers emigrating to Aus/NZ... where are the government solutions to workforce retention? In any other industry, surely this would be seen as a major crisis.
