This is how I feel following the #BawaGarba finding:
1) You’re employer will scapegoat you for systemic failures.
2) Your seniors will throw you under the bus.
3) Reflective practice will land you in trouble.
How the @gmcuk think this is good for patients is beyond me.
We are. I would suggest a lack of candour is what leads the majority of families to head for the courts and pursue such charges. And I think there will likely be more cases ahead unless we get this candour issue sorted out. It's been a blight on the medical world for decades.

Agree with you there. Also creates rifts within the medical profession itself.

That's an interesting observation. Creates a rift how?

The destruction that the minority can cause is disproportionate. Risks trainees tarring all seniors with the same brush.
-
Why trainees? Shouldn't everybody be speaking up if something is amiss? Consultants AND trainees? And let's not forget, the senior in this case has inexplicably got off unscathed - so far. The brush didn't tar very high up the pecking order in this
#BawaGarba case, it seems? -
Everyone should be speaking up, but hierarchies do exist and if your boss isn’t one to support you’re a but stick eh? Your clinical supervisor has a lot of power with respect to ARCP progression.
