I don't think the medical world has the slightest grasp of how disturbing their behaviour has been for patients to observe recently. Whether you like it or not, without a transcript to support your indignant objections, it can appear very self-serving to us - and that's scary.

Nurses do. Am sure that doctors do too. I just want out. Sick trying to keep the system safe.

It's a dark phase for everyone, this. I'm sorry you've been put in a position where you're made to feel that way. Let's hope all this uproar leads to a more positive situation for all. x

No chance in Ireland I am afraid. As we have no whistleblower protection in Ireland, too much is brushed under the carpet

I'm not sure we've got any more protection for whistleblowers here either tbh. Not in reality. Doctors have shown their ability to use numbers to their advantage of late though. The Jack Adcock case being just 1 example. It has merit if properly directed >https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/957356100633923585 …

John Clarke @C7RKYReplying to @StevenShorrockAbsolutely understand. I knew all those cases, although hadn't picked up on the interesting fact that the doctors chose to report concerns as a group in Belfast. Thinking/dancing. Always said there was power in numbers - can't sack them all. On this theme: https://twitter.com/C7RKY/status/948529655597948930 …1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Doctors have yet the nurse was hung long ago. Am an avid reader about systems failure. Reading about hindsight last night in dekker. By the time jack died, the analysis occurs with full knowledge which wasn’t available simultaneously for the dr.

Yes, the timing of this uproar & the fact that nurses were barely a footnote in the commentary of most doctors, hasn't gone unnoticed. Systems failures should be accounted for - I hope they were. There's a lot we don't know. This was my take on it (thread)https://twitter.com/C7RKY/status/962954985704214528 …
