Deeply offensive comment *and* if you're going to malign an entire speciality then kindly refer to us by our proper title - Emergency Medicine. We've got a royal college and everythinghttps://twitter.com/DrUmeshPrabhu/status/1051192964721102849 …
Umesh and I don't agree on everything - Bawa Garba being the most obvious example. But what is it about this observation you find so 'deeply offensive'? I'm mindful of Umesh's claim to have reduced patient harm by 90% in his previous trust when I ask that question.

Where's the evidence to support these claims and statements about the quality of ED middle grades? I'm an ED middle grade and on the whole my fellow MG and the locums I work with are excellent.
-
That's a fair question. Perhaps
@DrUmeshPrabhu will clarify for us? I can only assume he has some frame of reference that would allow him to make such an observation. -
From the sounds of it it's anecdotal evidence from one consultant which isn't strong enough evidence to make such a sweeping and offensive statement
-
I'm less inclined to dismiss someone's view because it's perceived as offensive, than I am if there's no evidence to support it, tbh. Nothing personal, but an observation which offends the subject doesn't necessarily make it automatically wrong. Let's see...
-
He has said it repeatedly I. The thread that it is based on one consultants experience hand taking early retirement because his/her department was running almost fully on locums
-
Which says more about the department and it's leaders than it does about trainees
-
Agreed
