Today during a virtual meeting, the trainer asked for all cameras to be on. However, it was my lunch time so i was eating and drinking. i refused to put on my camera, as i didn't know who was participating in Ramadan, and i wanted to support my colleagues who were fasting. ๐Ÿงต

@DrEilidhMaria Nurse here ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ Doctors, midwives, nurses and AHPs are not comparable. Although similar skill sets, they provide a unique perspective on the same ailment which is why MDT is so valuable No one should be on the Drโ€™s rota except a Dr, just like a Dr wouldnโ€™t cover a RN shift

No, BMA doesnโ€™t represent PAs. But, doctors are the supervisors of this dependent profession and should therefore have a say in scope since itโ€™s their career and registration on the line.

@ChrisWoodPhysio i donโ€™t think she should be attacked - but iโ€™m a nurse (NOT an ED nurse) and even i got distressed watching the blatant mismanagement here. So if i have that very basic knowledge thatโ€™s outside of my field, then shouldnโ€™t we expect an ED practitioner to as an absolute minimum?

does anyone know why NAs were introduced instead of funding more RNs? What do NAs do to contribute to the MDT that RNs and HCAs canโ€™t do together, that makes them an independent profession in their own right with presumably their own skill set? Genuine question ๐Ÿ’ญ

@JnrDocJ what i find super weird is that women are so sexualised even by HCPs, especially when theyโ€™re literally giving birth to tiny humans. Like a man canโ€™t do O&G but women can do urology (and deal with penile concerns) MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

@minoritisedNHS @wendyjoyr and how many pain specialists.. this is still pseudoscience and comparable to placebo. Would love to see the double blind randomised control trial that decided this

@NorthumbriaNHS @LissaKEvans It doesnโ€™t matter if itโ€™s a clinical area, the โ€œruleโ€ is no mask - no entry (unless exempt). Why was he allowed to take his off? And if itโ€™s ok that he took it off - why are the rest of the staff still wearing theirs in the same areas he is? I think this is a poor explanation ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿฝ

stop thinking of the medical, nursing, healthcare, etc. professions as a calling yes, we do it because we care. but weโ€™re highly skilled practitioners, who take years and years to hone our craft and provide a service that keeps people alive & safe just pay us what weโ€™re worth??

Would you say this to a businessman? No Would you say this to a lawyer? No Would you say this to a dentist? No Stop acting like doctors are working for a charity. They are skilled professionals who should work wherever attracts them the most.

@JGrapsa @simranchhugani Yes! My favourite ward I ever worked on was the busiest ward in the hospital, very dependent patients (clinically and mobility), but the team was amazing and we got through each day together. Whereas Iโ€™ve worked on โ€œquiet wardsโ€ with less demand and hated it because of some staff

if anything is clear, itโ€™s that we need more ESEA representation in senior manager roles and for employers to reflect on their own bias as to why they are preventing natural progression for these well deserving, dedicated and talented RNs & MWs (6/6) #CelebrateESEAHeritage ๐ŸŽ‰

thank you @FNightingaleF for hosting the webinar today: breaking through the bamboo ceiling, to celebrate ESEA RNs & MWs. As a white ally, itโ€™s crucial to listen to the feedback of minorities & on twitter there were calls to stop this โ€œproblematicโ€ and/or โ€œracistโ€ (1/6)

@EdanStarforth How strange! I thought the terms would have been: neurological physiotherapist, neurotherapist or neurology AP. Never heard of a non-medic describing themselves as a neurologist. Not sure of legality, but may go against HCPCโ€™s code of transparency & maintaining public trust

@Meghpai @DrEilidhMaria I expect I will be. I just donโ€™t think non-nurses should have a say on how nursing hierarchy or training is implemented, so I would be a hypocrite to say that non-doctors should have any say in how doctors work and practice

@SwearySister I personally disagree with this. Iโ€™m all for career progression, but I believe if youโ€™re doing a skilled task that comes with potential adverse events you should be paid accordingly. If youโ€™re not making them a band 5 pay offer, then donโ€™t give them extra responsibility
