Leng review PA summary: ✅ Name change ✅Uniform ❌No undifferentiated patients *except minor ailments*?! ❌Scope for expanded role as “advanced physician assistants” with prescribing & IRMER rights 683 patient safety issues reported ALL ignored It’s an utter whitewash

Fathers don't usually die during childbirth
It's funny how after the birth of a baby, announcers declare that "mother and baby are doing fine". What about the father??
Community note
Father's generally, do not die during childbirth, nor do they suffer physical from complications of childbirth. However, About 260,000 women died during and following pregnancy and childbirth in 2023. who.int/news-room/fact…

watching back to the future part 2, and its proper crazy how they thought we’d have flying cars in 2015 when in reality we have to wait 3 months to see a dentist and 17 years for a mental health diagnosis in 2025

🧵/ This heartbreaking case highlights why so many doctors like me have begged @NHSEngland & @DHSCgovuk to stop endangering NHS patients by substituting doctors with non-medically trained PAs We've been dismissed & smeared as "toxic bullies". Please read this thread & decide.

This case is utterly tragic. A patient experiencing abdominal pain and vomiting was seen by a physician associate and diagnosed with a nosebleed, and was discharged from hospital that same day. She died two days later after having a catastrophic bowel obstruction. The coroner concluded that the ‘physician associate’ title is misleading to the public and that ‘no steps’ had been taken by NHS staff to correct the family of the false impression that the PA was a doctor. The coroner also dismissed the hospital’s idea that PAs are equivalent to doctors on the medical rotas, and that ‘blurring roles’ puts lives at risk. Meanwhile the expansion of the role of PAs within the NHS continues, with the green light also being given to recruit PAs from WHO red list countries. Patient safety is paramount. @wesstreeting must act now to prevent further cases like this happening.

We are calling for tighter restrictions on fireworks following the death of Roxie, our endangered red panda kit, on bonfire night. Our expert vet team believe it's likely that three-month-old Roxie died due to stress caused by fireworks in the local area.

What if I tell you from what I know about CSA & grooming, I do not believe this was an accident.

Just an FYI to GPs Please don’t take off a patients long-term repeat prescription without even talking to them about it, especially when it’s a medication they rely heavily on for a reasonable pain level and tolerable life It causes a lot of undue stress and upset

Trump's apparent victory has 5 big implications for the UK: 🧵 1️⃣ It can happen here. He will back Farage, the Musk propaganda machine will crank up against Labour; the Tories will remould themselves into Trump-lite Islamophobes ...
