PA Stephen Nash Wes Streeting The review didn't even come close to examining evidence in substantive depth - hundreds of identifiable cases of harm ignored and not acknowledged, no acknowledgement of unlawful activity revealed at multiple NHS sites in relation to prescribing/radiation. If anything, the

What a ridiculous thing to publish. If this is representative of PAs then doctors need to protect themselves and simply refuse to teach, train, and supervise these people. This is not a relationship they need nor should try to salvage. You cannot work with people like this.

A good day to highlight this. There will be AA/PAs who could make good doctors. There is a very well-established and successful pathway to enable them to do this. Donya Mighty and others have gone through this and are offering free mentorship to those who are interested

Very well said. Once it became clear what was happening with the UK PA project it had to be stopped. The people who facilitated this cast aside their professionalism and integrity. The EGM was a disgrace, yet many of that leadership group remain in place. They should all resign

Right now Royal College of Physicians leaders are attempting to remove Partha S Kar 🇮🇳🇬🇧🏏🎥 from his elected position and remove his FRCP because he whistleblew about patient safety issues caused by the PA project. These people must not be allowed to have anything to do with the future of PAs.

There are no good reasons why Royal College of Physicians should not release all of this information and everything to do with the investigation. But they won't because they lack basic honesty and integrity.

If u r a RD working in a team with one of these Consultants& u see a Physician Assistant (whom they r very friendly with) working out of the remit of their scope &putting pt at significant risk& u had to step in to protect pt. Will u feel confident to raise it with Consultant?

Obviously if you own a company designed to profit from PAs this is exactly what you would want people to believe. Presumably at the start of her talk she must have stated this huge financial COI? She should have also declared it to the people organising this event. Did she?

This is disturbing I hear there are PAs who are critical of Nash & his UMAPs.org.uk NEC who have supposedly infiltrated every PA group & silenced any PA voices critical of them🥺 They feel Nash doesn’t represent them, but has been given voice on national stage due to his“links” 1/n

I agree with this. The people responsible for misleading PAs, placing patients at risk, and creating this mess are still here. They are still in positions of power. Many have been promoted. No reflection, no consequences. Things need to change. Most PAs are victims not villains

I’d like to talk a bit about the Leng Report, and thank Prof Leng and her team. It’s quite extensive, and addresses various parts of the MAPs issue, so I wanted to discuss various parts in isolation than go through it chronologically. But, please do also read the report. 1/

Very good thread on medical leadership in the UK. We cannot trust organisations like Royal College of Physicians and GMC while the people who created this mess remain in charge. But doctors need to start fighting and recognise their worth and stop being so supine.

PAs with insight and a desire to practice medicine should get in touch with Donya Mighty and see if this group can help.

The sad irony being that full pay restoration for resident doctors would cost less than this. At just £1.3bn approx if you did it overnight. And to be clear, Resident Doctors aren’t even asking for it overnight. They’re happy to negotiate a journey via a multiyear deal. #WinWin

If you are a doctor and are proud to stand behind our chairs Dr Melissa Ryan 🦀 and Dr Ross Nieuwoudt like and repost this message.

This you lad? Wes Streeting

Seems to be relevant today. Two cheeks of the same arse, to use a medical term.

bbc.com/news/articles/… I'm not sure any doctor working for this trust should trust their management in any way. Do what you think is safe, document everything, and do not let them bully you.

theguardian.com/politics/2021/…. £1B of tax payers money handed out like it was nothing, phones ‘lost’ and now he’s upset about a dr having a drink. Pathetic.

I thought George could not top PA Darcy Thecat. But he may have done it with this reply to that vacuous twat.
