Please do read the article in @Doctors_net_uk in which @gem1509 from @moosa_duke has given her view from a legal perspective on the important debate about Physician Associates.
I was pleased to speak with @eleanor__p of @Doctors_net_uk about the ongoing discussion surrounding physician associates & the scope of the role (see article for Doctors.net members) Patient safety must be at the forefront of all decisions about staffing in the NHS

With a very heavy heart I stand down as Deputy Lieutenant for Leicestershire, with immediate effect (a position normally held until age 75). As an Asian, Muslim woman, I was humbled to be appointed by Lady Gretton in 2017, the 2nd Muslim after the late Freda Hussain MBE.

Am I reading this right? Orthopaedic ACPs are handling referrals from ED - so patients with suspected CES? Cynics will say that me & my colleagues are rubbing our hands together at this, but trust me - we aren't We are so scared about what this means for #patientsafety
It seems that is the case for orthopaedic surgery

A fascinating evening in the company of the Principal Private Secretary to Their Majesties The King and Queen, The Rt Hon. Sir Clive Alderton K.C.V.O. Not often you hear directly from someone at the heart of the monarchy.

3 year old Siti would have died of complications in heart surgery if it wasn't for the Healing Little Hearts team. It's a privilege to meet her and the amazing team who saved her life. #heartsurgery #charity

This is very alarming. Did you know that a physician associate has no formal medical training? telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10…

What is the NHS coming to? This is very worrying.
This death was preventable. I've been dealing with negligence in the NHS for a while now and sadly not much surprises me, but the creation of physician associates is genuinely terrifying 1/4 telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/10…

Cauda Equina Syndrome is a serious spinal condition that can usually be avoided with timely diagnosis and surgery, but it can often be missed due to lack of awareness. We are proud to support @caudaequinacesa with the #caudaequina workshop on 1st and 2nd October.
