Wishing all GPs and their teams the very best as lockdown restarts and the vaccine rollout goes forward - well done all!
Sorry not been Tweeting much - let others speak for me - but now noting almost one year since I became President - weird year! But well done all for keeping going! And AGM/ Council beckon.... and please keep in touch
#RCGPTogetherLive Maybe message is every consultation needs to be person centred and then we need to assess need for continuity with the patients - some only need it shortterm, some don’t need it at all, but the system should be capable of allowing us to give it where needed
Did a lovely webinar event @rcgp south London Faculty tonight Hope more faculties invite me online since F2F not available yet!
HappyWorld Family Doctor Day to all GPs everywhere @WoncaWorld @rcgp and hope Covid let’s us free soon! Well done to you all for your frontline work Keep safe #Rcgptogether
And then there was silence (11 a.m. 28/4/20 for NHS losses) We really are all in it #RCGPTogether
Another ‘remote’ clinic - glad to see colleagues and a few patients but hope the real thing comes back soon Join me #RCGPTogether and share your photos from the frontline @ClareGerada @HelenStokesLam @DrJohnChisholm
Not doing much Tweeting myself as RCGP sites most important to follow Join the Members Forum and we can share questions and solutions - CPD resources also free to access now. Good luck all!
