There used to be a GP per 1800 patients (2015) the plan was 1/1600

There are now 1/2300

Rishi & his colleagues have made it harder to see a GP

In every constituency in the country it’s now harder to see a GP

They have cut 20% funding £/patient & replaced GPs
with ARRS staff

ARRS (Additional Roles) in General Practice (£1.4bn) has been at the expense of cutting funding to GP Practices (£2bn) = fewer GPs & Practice Nurses & less access for patients

NHS England Board - last time they spoke about GP - Dec 23

The ‘plan’ is not thought through or costed

The average GP practice of 10,000 patients in🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿has lost the equivalent of £350,000 in real terms funding in just 8 years

8000 GPs shortage in FTE GPs employed

Thousands of GPs can’t get work

NHS England Workforce Plan is fund ARRS roles not GPs

Can’t see a GP - here is why

Talking to Ronnie..

PAs - in danger of killing their own profession

GPs - toughest job in medicine

Labour very likely to increase NHS funding

Have listen. Tell me what you think the future of NHS will be…

Yes, it's the Telegraph.

But please just read it, and try to do so without preconceived ideas around general practice.

Whether you are a member of the public, or a healthcare worker elsewhere in the NHS, we all need to understand the pressure these folks are under.

A doctor who practises medicine in the UK must be registered with the GMC. If you have a private consultation in a UK hotel, please check that the doctor seeing you is on the GMC register (ie registered with the GMC as a doctor- check carefully).

The scandal of Tory waste and dodgy pandemic contracts continues.

This government refuses to publish details of 36 PPE contracts worth £1bn which failed to deliver.

Labour will appoint a Covid Corruption Commissioner to claw back every pound we can.

AVERAGE COST OF APPOINTMENT TO THE NHS

Pharmacy First - £40
ARRS - £35
GP - £23

Which ones do the Government & NHSE support? Which one is more needed & safer for patient care?

GPs are leaving, one at a time, then teams, then contracts handed back

Blame MPs not GPs

Remember Rishi has no recollection, can’t recall & therefore is unlikely to remember if he has promised anything after an election
Like many in Govt his grasp of facts is a wonder to behold
He promised a Govt of integrity, professionalism & accountability

There used to be a 2 week rapid access chest pain service (just 5 years ago)
Cardiology waits are unsafe
The increase in cardiac deaths is a national scandal
This is totally unacceptable

Pleased that NHS NW London ICB has paused the introduction of ‘same day access’ GP hubs.
Looking forward to ICB’s plan for public engagement as a revised scheme is analysed and developed. inlogov.com/2024/05/13/kee… INLOGOV
