I used to get a sinking feeling every time i got a reply letter from them. Maybe there are many others that have had the same feeling.pic.twitter.com/wOcz6wKFwB

As to consent its often left up to the SHO, who in August and February time may not know his coccyx from his Olecranon and is just repeating rote fashion what he is told to say with very little understanding. After all theses Drs are not safe writing up drug charts unsupervised.

"..may not know his coccyx from his Olecranon"

can you tell I am an orthopaedic nurse? personally prefer it to arse from elbow...
-
I can tell now. Certainly made me chuckle! :)

My pleasure- can usually turn my patients frowns upside down when they are having a bad day. Its a skill you cant teach in a university like many others lacking today sadly
-
So, so true. It's not just about passing exams, it's a vocation. Or at least it used to be. Not sure all view it the same way any more tbh. Sadly.

Wonder what it must feel like to know that, no matter how disgracefully you behave, you will be protected to the nth degree?

I'm no psychologist, but we know kids learn boundaries by having them enforced. They push and push until they're stopped. If nobody stops them, they carry on and think it must be ok. I can only imagine that the unacceptable can become normalised when consequences are absent.

“The information you have provided is being considered” - before we reject it on the basis that no one has the power to enforce it.

CQC/GMC/NHSE all acknowledge the risk. DoH (who are responsible for policy in this area) made aware of that fact, but between them all they've done sweet FA! Not a pair of balls between the lot of them. Every patient left to face the risk UK wide. Laughable, were it not so lethal

You are quite right, John. What happened to professional ethics? Or do bad doctors simply say what they are told to say by Legal Services, true or not?
-
I'm sorry to say, but most do just that in my experience. But we also know it's a career limiting move to do anything else. Which brings the focus on to management & how the hell they're able to create such fear without ever being held accountable. We need that to change. Fast!

Otherwise I'd say it could be deemed forgery i.e. making notes appear to be contemporaneous when they aren't.

Oh dear me-trying to get that past freaking Surrey Police thick as shit DC-let alone now Chief EXEC SPH. Midwife didn't have the mat notes available- Mum had gone home so she wrote in Mums notes on return to work NO annotation to say retrospectively written. Never challenged!

Yep, afraid so. That's just so doctors & trusts know what really happened. Doesn't mean they have any intention of letting a complainant know that. Weeding/seeding will soon unpick even the most studiously completed notes, if what they say is inconvenient.https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/941470674035625984?s=21 …

Haha! So true. There was a great big week sticking out that they hadn't been able to remove when I went looking. Something they couldn't quite amend away, despite their best efforts. An honest police force would've seen a dishonest doctor in jail by now. Biggie, as weeds go! :)
