That's an interesting list - esp considering there appears to be complete non-compliance with those guidelines in this case. Have they any weight? Is it like GMC guidelines which one is obliged to account for?

NHS doctors are patients of the NHS too and so are our nearest and dearest. I don’t believe in this “them and us” division. It isn’t the case that there is not a peep from clinicians about individual or system failures. It was the basis for much of the Jr Dr contract debate.

I know that each NHS professional goes to work each day to do the absolute best they can for patients. What can we do when the system breaks and patients are harmed? That’s the crux of the matter, people are fed up hearing “lessons will be learned “. 1/2

The lessons always seem to be Be more vigilant Work harder Fill in more forms Read the policy Do mandatory training And not changes in Structure & Process to make it easier to do the correct and harder to do the incorrect things

A dangerous stretch of road needs to be redesigned and rebuilt to become safer but The NHS answer would be to add more warning signs, demand higher speeds, better fuel consumption and fewer accidents but be surprised when it got more accidents and harm.

When the M25 becomes overcrowded dangerous and queues build up Flow and Safety are improved by making traffic slow down. When hospitals are overcrowded dangerous full of queues and understaffed we are ordered to speed up. Result?

Sure we've done this analogy before Gordon? If someone weaves through traffic at 200mph (reckless) & causes an inevitable fatal pile up, they're culpable despite any 'system' flaws around them. Ever wonder what our analogies sound like? Harsh but true ;-)https://twitter.com/C7RKY/status/1023952713539891202 …

That has intent. Something required in Scots law but not in English law for prosecuting medical negligence

A better scenario - someone weaves through traffic at 200mph, breaks don’t work, car is deficient, they attempt some preventative action although the speed makes the action less effective and still cause a pile up are their actions criminally reckless
