Another day, another part of the NHS beset by crisis & workforce problems (here the toxic combination of de-funding & de-skilling) as cash-strapped GP practices cannot afford locus GPs & are shifting to 'associate' positions... if you think this looks like the Teaching Assistant move in schools you'd not be wrong.
Its just another aspect of the Tories attack on professions via budget cuts & 'facilitating' their work to be done by the un(der) trained.
