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.

Privacy is dead, and all of your data, including medical information, is constantly being sold to the highest bidder. This is a terrible situation, and there should be strict regulations for those who are breaking the law. Source https://www.threads.net/@thebrianpenny/post/C6y2ckfxaDj/

@nixCraft Its not just online therapy either. Everything you say to inperson therapists too never stays with them. I promise you that

Everything is about money in the end. Its all one big circle of bullshit. People shouldn't be surprised when people dont trust therapy, and its disgusting to accuse someone of not wanting help because they refuse to go to therapy

Nah fam, it doesn't work and nothing is ever truly private, so I do not feel safe. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Coconut water is a fantastic summer drink for several reasons. It's incredibly hydrating, packed with electrolytes like potassium, and low in calories, making it perfect for replenishing fluids lost through sweating in the summer heat 🥥

Camilla Cavendish is too cynical about the BMA & its handling of the doctors' strike.

But she's right on the button when she points out much of 'junior' Doctor disquiet is not about wages but about working conditions.

And this, local Trusts can do something about by offering subsidised meals, free parking & better rests facilities (as has been done in Milton Keynes).

As she concludes, if we want Doctors 'to take care of us, we need to look after them'
