#BawaGarba showed a multitude of systems failures - understaffing of Medical & Nursing staff, no supervision, no induction, a blood reporting system failure there was no accountability or corporate manslaughter charge for the trust. As the NHS squeeze worsens, will this continue? -
I'm familiar with the details, yes. I also know that the jury found
#BawaGarba's acts/omissions to be truly, exceptionally bad (& thus grossly negligent) even *in all the circumstances*. Forgive me taking the lazy option, but it's a lot to have to re-type:https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/1029303542685814789?s=21 … -
Many court findings have subsequently been found to be inappropriate. Her care was not as found "truly exceptionally bad" but an unsurprising result of such a flawed and unsafe system. Had she pointed that out she would have been persecuted like Dr Day and other whistleblowers.
-
She would have needed time and courage to whistleblow during in her double shift whilst doing the work of several people at once, you are unreasonably expecting her and others to be superhuman and in so doing making more tragedies more likely
-
#BawaGarba is a convicted criminal who has been refused leave to appeal - twice - by the same judge who overturned David Sellu's conviction and raised the legal bar to 'truly exceptionally bad' for future cases. So yes, her care was exactly as found, despite your assertion. >> -
Actually her criminal conviction is entirely spent...she is not a criminal. Keep your bile to yourself.
-
Bile? Get a grip, James. It's not bile to point out facts from fiction. Fiction such as your erroneous claim that her conviction is spent. Is it really? Conviction date: Dec 2015 +sentence: 24 months +period until spent: 4 years = Dec 2021 So not spent, apparently? Bile, my arse!pic.twitter.com/MyOe3x27oX

And that assumes her conviction will ever become spent at all. I'm not familiar with this aspect so I don't know if it applies in this case, but the information here details manslaughter as one of the convictions that never becomes spent.https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dbs-list-of-offences-that-will-never-be-filtered-from-a-criminal-record-check …

No, I put it to you that a myth of evil is created to justify blame and extreme punishment for the obvioys cause- easier than facing the uncomfortable truth about a system set to fail.https://twitter.com/cjw450cathy/status/1054466730855153665?s=21 …
-
You put it to me? There's nothing comfortable about either option. And they're not mutually exclusive. The 'system' does need fixing, but mustn't be allowed to become the sole focus of blame just because it conveniently avoids individual accountability.https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/1053582542694244352?s=21 …

I agree, but likewise the other way too. There is far more a tradition of individual responsibility over communal or systemic, a direct product of Taylorism and ‘Scientific management’ from the early C20th.http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/Taylorism.html …

I've not done a thesis on the subject or anything, but I can tell you that after 7yrs of this nonsense & encountering literally hundreds of others in the same boat, individual NHS blame doesn't appear obvious to us. A few replies here anecdotally agree:https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/1052201127574409216?s=21 …

What I have seen is senior docs throwing junior docs under the bus. Remember one memorable case where consultant blamed it all on his junior and I was stopped from asking more questions about his role and availability.
-
That's outrageous. I'm bursting to ask you 'stopped by whom?' but it's unfair to put you on the spot on twitter. Did he escape scrutiny? I realise this is a sad reflection of my sceptical mind, but I suspect that happens when complete cover up (the preferred route) is impossible.
-
it was in the context of an inquest. Not an uncommon experience.
-
In that context, I can only imagine one person with the ability to stop you. Which given the purpose of proceedings, would be concerning enough in a single example, never mind with any greater frequency.
