This! Just this! Just saying….. once again wise words from @robjimfleming.bsky.social
If people were better supported to become Specialty Doctors, and better supported as Specialty Doctors to achieve their potential, training numbers become optional and the problem is solved.

Always brilliant to see @sethina.bsky.social.

Diverse teams provide better outcomes to diverse patient populations.

The barriers to career progression for doctors from ethnic minority groups are fundamentally patient safety issues.

Tomorrow I’m taking my niece to a physics thing for year 12 pupils at Cambridge. 👩‍🔬📚✏️
I can’t decide if I’m old as I have a niece that’s about to apply to uni or if I’m a child as I’m overly excited to be going to look round Cambridge because it’s famous and stuff! 😂🤩😝

🧠Neuroscience reveals that hurt (pain)≠ harm (damage)

👉🏼Athletes often discover injuries after games without even realizing they occurred.

💡This is bc emotional, cognitive + environmental inputs CHANGES THE BRAIN to change pain 🔥🔥
