My grief for the NHS has reached the sadness stage - I came home yesterday and cried, not just with tiredness, but with the growing realisation that it is irrevocably broken. For all those that say ‘you know what you signed up for’ - it was never this
For those that say ‘you can always leave’, like many other experienced doctors, I’m exit planning. Our juniors are angry but many are still at the bargaining stage. Let’s try to hang onto them while we still can. #payrestoration #JuniorDoctor
For anyone not convinced by the amount of service ‘junior’ doctors provide, in order to provide the basic level of emergency care without them ALL elective activity, outpatients and operating, has stopped. We need them back, and we need to make it better so they want to stay

I’m very proud of my wife @HelenRibee for passing another ED exam leaving just the OSCE part C to go for MRCEM.
She is pretty amazing. Wife, mother of 2. Or 3 if you count me. Manages the house and finances and organising, even when I do try and share this.

She has also had a more convoluted career journey than I have (and I’m currently st9 equiv with 18 mo this to go).
She was an ortho reg for 6 years. She wasn’t a trainee. But she was pretty boss. The ‘boys’ would often not stand a chance.

She went on may leave for our first, B, and whilst away from work had a radical change of heart and decided to go back switching to ED.
She *chose* not to go into training. Trainees in the region get flung all over the god-darn area.
Child. Life. Etc. Plus all …

UPDATE on #COVID19 for #juniordoctors
A thread summary of recent developments
@BMA_JuniorDocs reps and staff have continued to work flat out on the ever-evolving #covid19UK situation. Some answers are beginning to emerge, though more questions remain - we are working on these.

@BMA_JuniorDocs reps and staff have continued to work flat out on the ever-evolving #covid19UK situation. Some answers are beginning to emerge, though more questions remain - we are working on these.
Firstly: rotations. The four UK education bodies have confirmed that upcoming #juniordoctor rotations will cease for now. We've heard reports that in some areas they have yet to confirm this; we have raised that clarity is required for junior doctors to have certainty.
Regarding cancellation of study leave:
@NHS_HealthEdEng:
"Trainees should endeavour to obtain a refund for any pre-booked expenses. If they unable to do so we will honour the claim, but they should provide evidence when they submit their claim that the expense was non-refundable"
