Jade Revell died on Christmas Day 2021. A routine blood test had shown dangerously low potassium. Nobody told her. Her GP surgery raised concerns about a flaw in SystmOne. TPP said at the time it had fixed a bug. Now it says there was no problem at all. theexchange.news/tpp-systmon…

🔴 Patients dying after doctors are replaced with nurses. Even physios who don’t know anything about pharmacology are let loose on patients in ED resus and prescribe all medications after a quick open-book course. ⭕️ Patients should always ask the person seeing them about their qualifications. ⭕️ Nurses, physios and other AHPs are only trained to work within their base profession. If you hate your profession, why did you want to become a physio in the first place? telegraph.co.uk/gift/ca90b76…

Last night @Ldn_Ambulance refused to send an ambulance to my house after I collapsed as the new boy on the other end of the line was reading off a screen. My heart beat was 150. My blood pressure was 175/120 and I had chest pains and could not breath. They new about my heart condition and still refused to send help. A neighbor picked me up off the floor and drove me to hospital. I was taken straight into resus where my blood pressure shot up to 185. I was seconds away from cardiac arrest as doctors call surrounded me like a scene out of causality I’m still in resus waiting for a bed in a ward. I can not accept that I was refused help by an ambulance. This stupidity almost killled me.

🆘Dear Worcester NHS Trust team @WorcsAcuteNHS, The public are deeply concerned that you’re ignoring serious whistleblower concerns raised by one of your nurses regarding bullying and intimidation by a Matron. ☠️ ⭕️ The Matron and her ward manager mates are allegedly creating fictional shifts to rip off the NHS. This was referred to the Counter Fraud Department. ⭕️ Verbal abuse of hard-working nurses. ⭕️ Allegations of sniffing cocaine 💀 supplied by an HCA. Can you please update us regarding the outcome of this investigation?

🏴‍☠️ Look at this nonsense. There is nothing called “physio-led” care in ED. Patients with aortic dissection or a full-blown heart attack might present with shoulder pain only. 💀☠️ ⭕️ Physios can provide their input after the patient has been cleared by a doctor. ⭕️ Who decided that the patient has got a purely musculoskeletal issue? The triage nurse? Welcome to the NHS circus.

A physiotherapist-led model of care in the emergency department reduced length of stay among patients presenting with uncomplicated musculoskeletal conditions, without compromising health outcomes or safety, and was cost-effective.

At Arrowe Park, the Trust has admitted that nurse consultants have been covering doctor shifts and carrying out work in place of medical consultants. Patients deserve transparency about who is providing their care. We’ve written to the Trust asking why doctors are being replaced in this way.

Surprised to discover that Thermo Fisher appears to show a fake western blot for the validation of one of their p53 antibodies. I've added a diagram to show the very similar bands. This does not appear to be one of the "published figures", but their own internal data.
