#BawaGarba myths. 4c Swiss cheese and system failings. 
#BawaGarba myths. 5. Honesty.
#BawaGarba myths. 6. There was no available consultant that day.
#BawaGarba myths. 7. The second registrar wasn't absent and was seeing patients.
#BawaGarba myths. 8. She wasn't looking after 30-40 patients.
#BawaGarba myths. Back to 4. Systemic failings (not).
#BawaGarba myths. 9. She was just out of med school.
Oh my. When I think of the strident defence of this woman by the likes of @drcmday James Haddock, Jenny Vaughn and @djnicholl... Just shameful.
Do we need much more evidence that Jack received anti-care? #BawaGarba
Mmm. #BawaGarba insists that Jack's cold hands were environmental. Shame on the @bmj_latest for repeatedly publishing such shite about this.
I actually feel embarrassed for the medical profession defending #BawaGarba without evidence of her failings and appalling evidence.
'I'm still a trainee...' This doesn't seem like a hard question to me but I ain't a medic. [Christ on a fucking bike.] #BawaGarba
#BawaGarba myths. Back to 5. again. Honesty.
Hindsight, drinking from a cup and cold hands from the car park. This is level of emergency NHS care learning disabled people can expect. #BawaGarba
Oh, and notes in the head of course. Silly me.
Waiting for a stream of medics to step up and say 'Gawd, I had no idea how bad #BawaGarba's failings were...'
She wasn't even busy. #BawaGarba
'What part of your medical training has told you that a child sitting up has got improved lactate?' #BawaGarba
She wasn't busy. She left a gap of 4 hours between an x-ray and starting antibiotics. How is this a system failure? #BawaGarba
Notes in head and those recorded say summat completely different to what #BawaGarba meant. Is this common among medics or just for certain patients?
And back to #BawaGarba myths. 6. There was no consultant available that day.
This is nothing short of monstrous. #BawaGarba
'A little elaboration...' There was no escalation here.
'That was a very unusual day and that behaviour is very unusual.' Gone into a tailspin with a patient with Downs Syndrome. #BawaGarba
Hindsight, cold car park, notes in head and... the full picture.
This is O'Riordan's defence. (Not sure it stacks up either...)
And finally (I hope)... #BawaGarba myths. 10. Her reflective portfolio was used against her in court. [She introduced it.]
