Last time the RNOH became a 'Trauma Centre' at the drop of metaphorical hat - this time, as a major incident is declared in London, we have become a COVID ICU and COVID recovery centre ... hats off to colleagues who are managing the change ... we can do this - and do it well...

They mirror yours Roshana. There needs to be career progression for all: it needs to be upfront & agreed. But -surgeons should be /must be (if they are interested) training surgeons and training well. So ... training others - yes, but at the expense of surgical trainees, no

@drlesleybarron I am 100% sure that being dismissive is the root of their problem. And in the realm of guy surgeons literally no specialty has proven themselves to be as awful as the big bro team of orthopods. We need young women to flood this specialty.

If you like fixing things, if you like removing the dis- to reveal the ability, if you are interested in how things function, comfortably, if you are always asking how and why and want to learn ย - then T&O is the only specialty there is.ย  Simples!
Take a look at the reasons to go into #trauma and #orthopaedics ! It is a dynamic and varied specialty where your work can make an immediate impact on patientโ€™s well-being. To find out more about this as a career choice visit #NCW2021 #painfreemobility

@SurgicalTutor @UKWENTs @LiangRhea @EDEnchanted @gwebbharris @PeckyDeSilva @deboraheastwood had some good stats on this - to markedly change the overall % would need almost everyone CCTing each year to be female (ish) Or it's getting better but even with parity in training (not there yet) there's a lag in cons numbers due to career length

Everyone should have a basic right to work in a safe & respectful environment without fear. The behaviours identified in the research from @UniofExeter and @UniOfSurrey must end.
