If you read one thing today, please make it this - @RSylvesterTimes’s devastating exposé of the NHS’s institutional tolerance of truly disgusting levels of sexual harassment.
I applaud the immense courage of Ms A, Ms E, Ms G & Ms H.

#SexualHarassment in #Surgery
“Who is heard & who is not heard maintains the status quo”
Our system protects powerful men, with powerful friends
Over. And over. Again.
It ignores, silences and undermines the humans who stand up to report them

The most important reason to treat people well is not what you'll get in return. It's who you hope to become.
Kindness is not about reciprocity or karma. It's about character.
Civility doesn't need to be justified with consequences. Respecting others is the right thing to do.

*Nobody* can or should be surprised by the data in the @gmcuk survey
It took long enough to get the data on bullying, harassment, discrimination & burnout to be taken vaguely seriously
To be clear, the culture in healthcare is not safe
The regulator knows it. The Colleges know it. @NHSE_WTE know it.
Myself and others have been telling them, showing them and proving it to them for over a decade
Change is happening, but it’s slow and hits barriers that need not exist
And much is performative, and will lead to further harm

We are glad to see the emphasis on mental health and strengthening the #NHS in the King's Speech this week.
Protecting safe spaces for staff, like Schwartz Rounds, is crucial for creating more compassionate services for patients and care providers.

This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, we want to acknowledge the importance of emotional support for mental health professionals.
There is an emotional cost of caring that can lead to compassion fatigue, burnout, secondary trauma and compromised patient care.

The ingredients for a meaningful dialogue are there in all our values, beliefs, experiences, fears, hopes. The challenge lies in how openly we each feel able to share them, & in the quality of the space in which we keep on listening even when that feels really difficult to do.
