John Hume: “Difference is of the essence of humanity. Difference is an accident of birth and it should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict. The answer to difference is to respect it. Therein lies a most fundamental principle of peace – respect for diversity.”

@DrAsifQasim A hugely important clarification that needs to be repeated over and again. PA is an occupation or a job. *NOT* a profession. So no more calling them 'professionals' because they are not - explains the crass social media videos, references to doctors as 'juniors' etc etc.

So PAs are practioners not *professionals*? They are 100% *dependent* on Drs for supervision hence their job cannot exist in isolation. Contrast with nurses, physios, OTs, dieticians, teachers, solicitors etc who work 100% autonomously. Independent of all other professional roles

@iDrSunny @ChelwestFT Looks every bit like the job description of a highly trained *doctor* with considerable specialist surgical knowledge to me. If PAs are doing these jobs, how do we train doctors to become the next generation of surgeons? #ValueOurDoctors #PatientSafetyMatters

@kt__hutchinson @RobsonCarol @mrsfairylights I know. It was the same for my daughter during F1 & F2. Just her and the registrar covering 300 patients on night shifts - she often carried 2 bleeps! Crazy levels of responsibility and stress, yet grossly undervalued by this woeful govt. It's heartbreaking. #FullPayRestoration

@credland_nicki Erm, how can PAs *supervise* junior doctors when they are in fact a doctor's assistant? 😳

Not from the Guardian but the Telegraph: 'The collapse of trust can be traced to the fatal flaws in Boris Johnson’s personality. The latest crisis in No 10 is no fleeting embarrassment; but a game-changer that has stripped the PM of any remaining credibility.'

@Tjkey This ludicrousness must end 😬. Given the outrageous blurring of PA roles with doctors, if I'm sick I want to be sure I'm being assessed/treated by a *doctor* and it's ridiculously obvious that professional roles should be clearly specified on your badge.

In Germany the new Health Secretary is a medical doctor who's an absolute expert on Covid. In the UK, the Health Secretary is an ex-banker. I think that says more about the UK than Germany.

@drkeithsiau @ExplosiveEnema2 @BritSocGastro I believe you will find that we patients want any (dangerous) invasive procedures to be carried out by a DOCTOR. We put our trust in Drs rigorous medical training & expertise obtained over many years shd anything go wrong. PAs/AAs/paramedics are *not Drs*

@csubbe @civilitysaves But given you're implying there's a shortage of Drs in that area, who was supervising the PAs? And were those same PAs caring for patients *safely?* This is the key concern for patients like me. #PatientSafetyMatters #ValueOurDoctors

@PeterHire69 @wesstreeting If she's being directly supervised by a Consultant, is she taking the place of a junior doctor that would like to be undergoing speciality training in neurology? If so, how do we get more consultant neurologists?

@Dr_Done_ Brilliant 💪🏾! We should all write to our GP practice managers and CEOs of our local hospitals stating our concerns about using PAs beyond their remit and the impact on pt safety. Sharing a protocol script that has had a positive outcome would be the most efficient. Anyone?

@jkcyriac23 Trust me Jerry, for all of us patients, qualifications matter A LOT. *Nothing* is more important than our health so we don't hand over our trust to anyone seen doing the same work as a Dr but with a mere 2yr training. Sorry, it's never going to happen.

@drcolinm Question from a patient: how can AAs & PAs "follow the same high professional standards as doctors" when they have less than half the amount of training as most doctors? Make it make sense!! I'm genuinely scared for patient safety under this unscrupulous scheme. #ValueOurDoctors
