Of course views all mine. All without prejudice. Just a regular chap after all. Oh...and RT's may equally imply ridicule as endorsement.

      Just abhorrent. Caring profession? Some people need to be taking a long hard look in the mirror. It's things like this that will make people more likely to 'take sides'. Only themselves to blame, imho.https://twitter.com/C7RKY/status/958282865543917568 …

      Utter genius, eh? Well at least we know how pitifully low you set that bar now. I'll keep this in mind the next time a clinician tries to tell me how clever they are. Thanks.

      Basic indeed. Bordering on feral, in some places. Only makes me more determined to expose such attitudes and hold them to account. If they're hoping such antics will help their cause, they're in for a big shock. The sea has gone out. The Francis tsunami is coming, imho

      There have been a lot of inappropriate tweets. I won't comment on this case but think impact will be HCPs reconsidering working in understaffed environments where the organisation is not providing conditions it's legally required to

      HCPs should've been raising that concern all along & taking action if ignored. Seems to me senior clinicians were happy to stay silent as long as they were personally unaffected. But NOW they find their (obnoxious) voice? Cover ups disguise failing systemshttps://twitter.com/C7RKY/status/958132020672114688 …

      This. This. This. This is by far the most candid summary of the reality of the issues arising from the #BawaGarba case (as well as the wider ones we face) that I have seen from any clinician. Bravo @parthaskar! A proper start to a real conversation. At last! https://twitter.com/parthaskar/status/957882827869245440 …

      It's the effect of institutionalisation where staff lose objectivity of what acceptable normality feels like. They fail to notice the drift towards poor practice, especially if constantly working under an excessive level of pressure

      That's a well considered observation, Cathy. I respect your view. Always have. So how do we fix this? Because humanity is now pounding on the doors of this institution and it doesn't like what it's seeing through the windows!

      It’s a difficult one to fix as some categories of staff can easily move around and some are less able to. Absolutely critical IMO is the culture of the organisation led by the board and senior clinicians, managers. Challenge should be welcomed at all levels so staff are >>

      empowered to raise concerns and work effectively in teams. The team leader may be accountable but they need to utilise the team for their expertise. You can see the difference between different orgs by just watching how staff behave.

      "You can see the footprint of the manager in the behaviours of their team" And yes we can. But right now, that's part of the problem - far too many ugly footprints. Wish I could be a fly on the wall to be able to analyse what's driving these behaviours.

          A heady cocktail of self preservation, fear and spoonful or two of arrogance?

          I might be wrong, but my gut tells me we get a disproportionately 'good' sample on Twitter - terrifying as that is. Doctors may be many things, but they're not stupid. The really bad ones won't come anywhere near twitter, imho - because of Sara's self preservation point..

          You can’t tell from twitter whether they’re good or bad doctors per se, and all the ones I follow are lovely as I unfollow any who are overly arrogant and obnoxious. But I’ve seen some tweets that are inappropriate in content and style in conversations I’ve looked at

          Partly historical, partly personality, partly wrong staff mix, partly poor working conditions. To be fair it’s observable in all areas of life, but the outcomes are especially serious in healthcare
