@timcs1968 @goldstone_tony @SteveBarclay Not just ‘senior’ consultants who are about to retire. I’ve been a consultant 4.5 years and likely to have a tax charge this year for going over AA. Considering dropping hours to mitigate this.

@IsMiseStiofan I took a pre-alert phone call years ago to tell me a young gentleman was septic as he was tachycardic and had a high respiratory rate. I asked what was wrong with the patient - he had an open ankle fracture that had just happened. I politely explained sepsis was unlikely!

@MallinsonT @DrLindaDykes I’ve had a similar one to this @MallinsonT : ‘You don’t have any children so you can work Christmas’ closely followed by ‘well your Mum lives miles away and you’re working Christmas so you might as well do New Year nights too because you won’t be able to go and see her’

Very eloquent explanation of how it’s not possible to live ‘with’ Covid.

This upset a lot of people. So maybe I should explain what I mean. 1) We are currently attempting to live “with” Covid- with sustained community transmission and continued lifting of restrictions

@enamhaque31 @MFTnhs @WythenshaweHosp I hope you’ve been seen and everything is sorted now. I think saying that all you need is a referral to # clinic is an oversimplification. That’s what the ED team are for, make a diagnosis and make appropriate referrals. If another dr saw you in surgery would you ‘just refer’?

@NJBanbury Our ED regularly expands it’s walls with patients in corridors with no additional staff or bed spaces… It’s all wrong everywhere but ED can’t be expected to manage all of the risk all of the time. It must be shared

@RedemptionBroon @ChrisCEOHopson @JamesWard73 Is that because you are young and usually well and hopefully wouldn’t have severe symptoms if you got covid? You are in the minority of patients we see in hospital. It’s a very dangerous premise to allow staff to knowingly work when they have a highly contagious virus. 1/2

@EmergencyBod Swapped to a rolling ED consultant rota for the first 10 weeks of the pandemic. Vividly remember ‘washing off the covid’ as soon as I got home from a shift. Didn’t see my Mum for months to protect her. People my own age died in front of me of covid. Not letting my hair down

@JackBarton07 ‘Senior review’ should not be the whole investigation and management plan. Write a differential diagnosis and an initial plan then enact the easy bits of it e.g. CXR, urine dip, ECG then get your senior review.

@RedemptionBroon @ChrisCEOHopson @JamesWard73 It’s easy to twist words on twitter isn’t it? That is not what I’m saying at all. I don’t want to risk giving vulnerable patients a highly infectious disease that might cause them harm. Knowing going to work with covid is an unacceptable risk vulnerable patients and staff.

@DrBenLovell @EmergMedDr Perhaps a reminder that sometimes the ED reg has seen more medicine than med reg... had a night shift with an excellent, new ST3, med reg pacing a patient in ED where as the ED reg I had more experience than them. We both learnt from the case and supported each other.
