Great to see dyslexia & neurodiversity gaining the attention it deserves w/ tonightโ€™s C4 documentary #JamieDyslexia. Early diagnosis & truly inclusive education/training remain essential for our kids to reach their potential. Pls support this worthy cause and sign the petition!

Enjoying the #Aurora at the Bannau Brycheiniog! Just about visible to the naked eye tonight #NorthernLights

Great thread. Most medics are unaware of the impact of poor oral health upon systemic disease. Sadly, limited access to dentistry will continue to widen oral health inequalities, risking longer term consequences for the nationโ€™s health (and at a financial cost). Thanks for your ongoing advocacy

"It is time for our profession to avail itself of the full range of talents represented by neurodiversity."

This Viewpoint discusses the importance of embracing neurodiversity in medicine to build a more inclusive physician workforce.

Thatโ€™s so unfair, those adjustments look entirely reasonable. If all else fails with BMA, the only other thing I can think of is involving the TPD, and failing that, the PG Dean.

Trouble is RAs are an employment issue and adjustments must be โ€˜reasonableโ€™. If time-based RAs are recommended through a workplace assessment (fewer pts on clinic, more time for admin), the healthboard/trust (& therefore trainers) are obliged to follow recommendations. Hope it gets sorted out!

Donโ€™t know the circumstances, but that doesnโ€™t sound right at all! Those affected need to challenge this & seek advice w/ the BMA. Residents might need to apply for Access to Work (JobCentre Plus) to have a workplace assessment and avail RAs when starting at a new HealthBoard or Trust.

Would any of my U.K dental peeps (especially any hospital based/CDS) share my post?

Glad to hear this. These tips scattered across our valleys are a real concern.

Hoping for the best for all those affected.

Back from a lovely camping break at Pembrey, South Wales. Sending some positive Sunday morning vibes with this peaceful early morning view, at low tide. Happy Sunday!
