I was today years old when I learnt that my “housewife” mum at 26yrs, just married and new to the UK, passed her PLAB/USMLEs/MRCP/MRCOG in 1yr. 🤯❤️ She stopped to “be my mum”- restarting medicine as a medic PRHO when I was 17. ❤️👏❤️👏 to all the amazing mums out there.

Supplementing palliative meds with the patient’s beverage of choice provides some recapture of the often lost autonomy in the dying patient. I am a firm advocate of those who have the ability to chose how they wish to spend those final days/hours being given the right to do so.

The slow death of GIM upsets me greatly. The hatred for the Med Reg on call role is an indictment on training in Medicine. I keep defending the need for multi-speciality StRs to develop good GIM skills. But this is my bias and poorly reflects active experience of those in post

24/7 consultant presence at the front door in our trust has produced a huge amount of efficiency. The flow is better and the morning team have much fewer waiting to be seen. Lesson learnt from strike nights: 24/7 decision making consultant presence is worth investing in.

The level of concern about the junior docs strike is way beyond that around other strikes. It's not just about hands on deck - it's about how efficiently consultants can use IT systems and how skilled they are at basics like cannulation which they may not have done for some time.

The importance of spouses/loved ones who shoulder so much cannot be underestimated. The set up of medicine is not built for working couples, where one does not sacrifice time/career/ambitions. Take a wild guess which particular group is more likely to make the bigger sacrifice.

@DrLKVaughan @gmcuk I applaud your 🧵 and agree with much. Is using #BeKind ignoring our ethical tenants? Are the ethics of justice and beneficence outdated? Interesting they aren’t referred to in the proposed document.

Dying shouldn’t always be a negative outcome. Good medical care can save you from an uncomfortable and tormented end of life.

@doc07_dr @juliaisobela Why don’t you come out into the light and be as honest as you claim to be? That’s right - you have absolutely no integrity or backbone. I’m 💯 sure I’d rather have Julia as my doctor over you.

@IsabelOakeshott @MHA_92_ What’s your evidence for your allegations here? There is a video of a person celebrating having a quantity of money in a bedroom. Can’t hear any speech or see any signs to suggest alternatives. If it’s illegal earnings then he needs to be reported to the authorities?

Excellent to see. Well functioning acute medical units are dependent upon effective staffing and function. The benefits of AMUs on admission, mortality and LoS are well known. So, getting the AMU right should be high on every medical directorates list of priorities. #takeAIM
