Harrowing words from a senior emergency medicine doctor showing the despair at not being able to provide the level of care every doctor hopes to for their patients. Every doctor, nurse & HCW can empathise with this right now. Shared w/ permission. Pls RT to get this out there.

An overcrowded Emergency Department is a overcrowded hospital that chooses to put all the risk on a team who is already sinking. How many good ED nurses / Doctors and allied professionals are we to loose before it changes and risk is shared. – at Liverpool, England

Our General Secretary and Chief Executive @patcullen9 has written to @Mike_Fabricant over his comments today on nurses drinking in staff rooms during #COVID19.
"I don't think at any time he thought he was breaking the law... he thought just like many teachers and nurses who after a very long shift would go back to the staff room and have a quiet drink" Tory MP Michael Fabricant urges Boris Johnson to apologise bbc.in/364xut5

Our Band 2 Colleagues currently earn £9.49 an hour. In April the Minimum Wage goes up to £9.50 and we know our next pay award (due in Apr) will be delayed AGAIN. So in April our hardworking band 2 NHS workers will be earning below min wage! RT if you agree this is a DISGRACE

I think we should make mothers feel more comfortable opening up about how difficult parenting is because they’re demonised for portraying it as anything other than sunshine and roses, and then they’re shamed when they realise they simply cannot cope
