A privilege to give this talk for #TEDxNHS please visit the site & look at all the talks. They were brilliant. I reflected in mine on the importance of HOPE and being there for others when things go wrong in healthcare. We should all play our part in an honest & transparent way.

Spent this afternoon with ⁦@rogerkline⁩ looking at the landscape of how ⁦@TheDA_UK⁩ can help disseminate better practice as in #Fairtorefer There is disproportionate referral of BAME doctors to @gmc by some employers. It needs to stop.

Still means they are under the great stress of an investigation. Doctors should not be above the law but patient safety is not served by criminalising healthcare workers for honest errors when the system is broken. @MattHancock we look forward to review and reform of this area.

Telling the story of #DavidSellu and #bawagarba at medico-legal conference Peterhouse Cambridge. Very kind of organisers to invite me. Spreading the word that it’s Time Up For #grossnegligencemanslaughter in healthcare for honest errors in systems under pressure.

Earlier today we wrote to @MattHancock calling for an immediate delay to the GP data for planning & research programme #GPDPR. @NHSDigital have failed to sufficiently communicate these plans to patients & there is not enough time for informed decisions to be made. (1/2).

My talk will be all about the blame culture which is so pervasive not only in healthcare, but in our world generally. It’s so important to reconnect hope for those who have been affected. There are so many important stories to hear @TEDxNHS. Come & be prepared to be inspired!.

Saurabh Jha says that what happened to Hadiza Garba in the UK would have been inconceivable in the US. So why do we criminally prosecute trainees? We should fix the system not the blame @cpsuk @gmcuk @doctor_oxford @BAPIOUK

#RSMUrology @RSMUrology met @okarimurol excellent day tackling the challenges of the blame culture. We must improve patient and staff safety together. Organisations too often remain unaccountable and weaponise the GMC and courts against hard working staff doing their very best.

@TheDA_UK and @BAPIOUK @jsbamrah @TheBMA called out #MPTS judgement. There must be a full investigation of what happened here. We @TheDA_UK are pleased that the GMC review will continue. This must not happen again. Utterly terrible treatment of Dr Arora, this whole ordeal.

There needs to be a whole review of why this case came to the GMC and what lay behind the case and the allegations faced by #DrArora. @healthyopinion @BAPIOUK. All of the staff I have ever helped there have almost always been vital system failures as part of the context.

@TheDA_UK @DAUK_GP welcomes the decision by @the_mdu to support the appeal of #DrArora. Appeals don’t always right wrongs unfortunately BUT we hope this will be successful and in the meantime there needs to be a full review of the circumstances of her referral @gmcuk.

It’s completely wrong that nearly 40% of doctors who trained abroad do not have legal representation, compared to 25% of doctors who qualified in UK and that as a result they are more likely to be suspended or struck off.

Folic acid doesn’t prevent 100% of cases, it was warned as a risk if not taken & a lack does not cause this type of spina bifida. Any doctor that has had a patient refuse investigation/treatment despite warning of risk (even 20 years ago), could be this dr. #IAmPhilipMitchell.
