This is genuinely frightening…. Physician Associates at 🏥 Alder Hey 💙: April-June: 3 months training only July: Named clinician available (for supervision??) August: “Flying solo” 🎉 Running PAEDIATRIC SURGERY clinics independently?! Patients & parents - please be aware! 🚩 🚩

England university tuition fees could rise 13.5% to £10,500. Student debt £240bn. Interest rate 7.3%, would double debt every 10 years. Young people financially disabled. Most European Countries do not charge Uni fees. Abolish Uni fees, write-off debt. independent.co.uk/news/education…

1/5: Alder Hey Hospital allowed a physician associate to conduct medical exams on abuse victims, despite the risks of evidence being dismissed in court. This could let child abusers walk free. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/09/3…

This is unacceptable. Surgical presentations can be very difficult to diagnose, particularly in children. After just 3 months with "intensive training" and then "going solo," raises many questions and is frankly nothing to be proud of. Governance? Risk analysis?

I see membership of The BMA as essential & don’t resent these subs I also think the 190,000 members won’t resent £2 of their annual fee being donated to Anaesthetists United legal case against GMC attempting to ensure proper, safe regulation of associates’ scope RT if you agree🙏

BREAKING/ The NHS establishment has a long & ignominious track record in trying to silencing the safety concerns of staff. 40 Fellows of Royal College of Physicians call here for the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges (AoMRC) to correct their attempts to smear doctors' concerns re: PAs 👇

Here's an idea, why don't the government actually speak to patients and ask them whether they want to be seen by individuals with no medical training?

BBC News (UK) The collective action is just GPs only doing funded work. The fact that doing this causes problems means the issue isn’t GPs…

It’s not doctors vote though is it. It’s the entire medical profession, BMA, RCGP, RCoA, RCS, RCPaeds, RCP soon to declare, etc, etc, etc. I’m not sure how the profession could possibly make it any clearer: we do not want or need associates. Denying reality won’t change it.

Thanks Adele Waters for asking to contribute re #PhysicianAssociates It's my opinion as someone who has worked in safety specific areas & work with several national orgs It's time to call for a review of this failure of implementation by NHS England Workforce, Training and Education It is time.

Roy Pollitt had no idea his wife Susan, 77, was being treated by a PA, not a doctor. The drain mistakenly left in her abdomen for 21 hours caused her death, highlighting - again - the dangers of substituting doctors with non-medically trained PAs 😔 bbc.com/news/articles/…

I will write more fully on this shortly - but this is a breathtaking abdication of responsibility by the UK’s medical regulator. This is mass medical deregulation - the GMC literally saying PAs can do whatever they want if their local employer says they can. An NHS scandal.

I cannot stand silently by as GMC fails patients in the PA debacle. Its entire point is to keep patients safe from harm - but it’s failing dismally. My piece on why the GMC is no longer fit for purpose👇 app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/68829/co…
