GPs: were over capacity Wards: Sorry we're full Ambulance service: we can't help people who need us, we're leaving hospital after 45 minutes Police: we can't help people who need us, we're leaving the S136 patient after an hour. Government: A&E need to work harder 4hr target

Hearing of so many excellent doctors not getting an ACCS EM training post this year. It was 2.2:1 competition ratio in 2016 when I applied & now it’s 4.99:1 - not as if the NHS is in need of A&E doctors tho 😵‍💫

Recent design I did with Grandad Skateboards is now out ! ! 1/3

Dr Sameer Sasidharan presenting QI for Emergency Medicine Trainees at the BMJ International Forum. Such an interesting poster and very insightful. QI is going to be huge in healthcare! #Quality2024

The right policies could stop this. Increasing 4 hour access standard to 78% from 76% doesn’t work. Instead focus on 12 hour length of stay, it’s already in the contract. Not doing this puts elderly people’s lives at risk

A woman is killed every 3 days by a man in their own home. Usually by a partner or a man they know. Our husbands, boyfriends, exes, friends who we've turned down, brothers, fathers. Men. Cis men. In their own homes. Not random trans people in public toilets.

“There is no need to change the STEMI-NSTEMI paradigm. I never see false negatives.” We published the article “The no false negative paradox in STEMI-NSTEMI diagnosis” in Heart (BMJ), and I’ll explain this paradox with a story: José de Alencar sees a patient with angina. 🧵

I can't believe I'm writing this but I'm struggling to get enough candidates for an ATLS reverification course on 29th November up here in Ayrshire. If you know anyone who might be interested message me or email [email protected]. Ta. Candidates, NOT instructors!

Hi Dr Tony Goldstone Just going through my remedial statement. I know how important going back to 2010/11 is for carry forward…so is there a reason the HMRC remedy calculator only lets you enter figures from 15/16? Or have I got the wrong end of the stick and you won’t lose out?

One of the most absurd asks ever—expecting members to calculate their own pension growth🤯 🚀We’ve built a free, super-simple tool to help 1995/2015 members (inc. GPs) ✅Takes 5 minutes ✅Only 4 pieces of info needed 👉 bit.ly/2324calc 🙏share via Facebook, WhatsApp

Fantastic piece on many of the limitations of test characteristics for determining post-test probability (which are well-known, and I rant about frequently with my poor residents)

Bizarre BBC Sport home page. Had to double check that the Championship play-off final was indeed this afternoon. Embarrassing that the national broadcaster thinks 90% of these non-stories are more important At least #LUFC fans can watch from a distance #SAFC #SUFC
