NHS physician associates and doctors locked in 'toxic' staffing row A toxic row has engulfed the NHS, say ministers. So why have doctors turned on physician associates?

This BBC piece is a very one-sided account of the issues in the use of PAs in the NHS www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It skims over the avoidable death of 30-year old Emily Chesterton, who died tragically after seeing the same Physician Associate twice.
See: hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2023-0…

Thousands of doctors across all specialties are concerned about PAs and patient safety

Valid concerns backed by a mountain of irrefutable evidence

Current noise is meant to bully and gaslight Doctors into silence

It won't work

#ToxicSilence

(Sound on)

Any way to create draft posts to save for later?

Sorting out scope of practice of physician associates in the UK: the clock is ticking The decision to introduce legislation in the UK to regulate Physicians Associates (PAs) and Anaesthetic Associates (AAs) has been hotly contested. From a historical perspective, this is to be expected...

Martin and Louella remind us that time is running out on the PA issue in UK.

I'm used to being up to my eyeballs in excrement

But I've never seen it as bad as the other place
