Corridor Care in A&E departments Take this survey powered by surveymonkey.com. Create your own surveys for free.

We're working with @rcem.ac.uk to help inform a report outlining the prevalence and impact of corridor care in A&E departments.

The report will highlight both patient and clinician experiences and set out recommendations for the future.

Oh ouch sending sympathies.
Have you got a local physio (when you stop vomiting)? Invaluable for my neck and back spasms.

Or...

"I thought you said they were sick! They look fine..."

Well, yes that was 30 minutes and 2 L of fluid ago....

I did not know this!

Me neither!

Hello Dr Linda Dykes, Thank you for messaging. Was it: RCEM responds to new ONS research into deaths linked to long A&E stays - rcem.ac.uk/rcem-respond... you were looking for? With this data featured: www.ons.gov.uk/releases/ass...

Nor a bigger mouth (waiting room)

I don't want a bigger Emergency Department.

I want a functioning social care system and a primary care service that can meet demand.

If we don't get that, the blockage in ED is going to get worse and more people are going to come to harm and die.

What is this witchcraft?! We haven't been without patients waiting for beds for months...

Ramadan mubarak to you and all others observing this month. (Time to go shopping for a little something for my supervisees)

This is breaking us but why is this sold as an EM/ED crisis? We could cope with the attendances but just don't have space to care for them. Not enough beds for patients who need admission, partly because of social care delays causing bed blocking & partly due to funding. All causing excess deaths.

Supporting reality to match the rhetoric: introducing the SAS six This SAS Collective blog explains how the SAS six campaign is supporting SAS doctors to develop within their careers and become leaders and educators.

Morning all!

Thanks again to our recent followers. We appreciate you.

If you want to read more about who we are, what we do, and why we think the #SASsix is important for the modern workforce, you can find out more in this @nhsemployers.bsky.social blog.

Morning folks.

The Collective, of which I am a small part, are trying to make postgraduate careers better, making every medical career journey more viable, and improving retention of UK doctors.

Help us out. Like and repost?

I just can't.... 😭🤦‍♀️

Survived a CQC inspection... first one ever!

Can't imagine they have any more than bare minimum of staff given that they are a charity reliant on donations so it will only take one person being sick for something like this to occur. Maybe use your platform to raise funding awareness & donations?

Pre covid a colleague and I did some work on Dr's wellbeing and an issue that repeatedly came up was the need for spaces to rest, so this story is sad but not surprising www.bmj.com/content/388/...

Almost every shift I have a period where I feel like I've completely lost control and have no idea what's going on. Usually coinciding with a queue of resident doctors wanting advice, the priority phone ringing and the nurse in charge "just letting me know" about something!
