Niggling thought of the day:
Why are doctors saying that this week GMC made patients less safe?
Why were patients still safe when #BawaGarba got convicted of gross negligent manslaughter, but we're not now she's been struck off?
Does loss of career hold more fear than conviction?

That consultant clearly could’ve been teaching ‘how to get out of seemingly impossible situations’ as a basic module? Maybe along with equally-useful: fobbing-off-genuinely-ill-patient-101 and ‘using a false patient-quote to introduce indisputable untruths into medical records’?

'Weeding and seeding' is a huge problem. And it's hardly as if it's unknown - David Behan instantly acknowledged his awareness of it when I met with him. A fix for this has to be part of any long term solution, imho

What is weeding and seeding? Taking out poor practices and encouraging the growth of potential in useful practices?

Haha! Oh I so wish that were the case. Alas, not quite...https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/941470674035625984 …

That sounds a lot 'colder'.. as a practice..

That's one word for it. I could think of a few others...

Law, decisions, depend on precision. Use precise, unambiguous medical terminology; ever wondered WHY consultants use ambiguous, waffling, laypersons language instead of precise, exact, medical terminology, verbally and in notes? It allows for ‘fudging’ of screwups, seamlessly.

Law, culpability, work that way. For instance 26/8/12 I attended A&E with a apparent mild pulled muscle which had inexplicably deteriorated overnight in spite of RICE. NHS Direct recorded worsening, directed me to A&E. Dr Cowen wrote improving; not at all true: but, documented.
