GPs get such negative press.
My GP (who generally gives an excellent service) came in at 7.30am last week to do my son's blood test so he could get to school on time 😍🙏🏼.

I was reminded today that you can't just 'create safety' with a clever technique, or just declare "all views are welcome". The key thing is WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS when people speak up with honest views. Is there genuine openness & welcoming of diverse views? This will tell you something about safety.

That time of year when it takes at least 15 minutes longer to get to bed, due to switching off multiple fairy lights. I love it.

Tonight's 3 good things...
1. I slept 55 whole minutes past my 5am standard insomnia time.
2. We finally cat-flea treated the carpets only 3m after we first intended too.
3. I found nothing but immense kindness in my connections with colleagues today. Hugely grateful 🥲.

Ok so my #3 good things before dozing off on the sofa....
1)a neighbour visited with fudge & kind words which were exactly what I needed today.
2) bought some Xmas pressies from craftspeople rather than Amazon
3) I survived another day as a middle class woman of a certain age.

The moral injury of seeing basic aspects of healthcare not happening is a heavy weight to carry. Its a big risk of burnout to take individual responsibility for what is a huge system problem. Any of us could doggedly work all hours & it wouldnt solve the problem. Important we stay conscious of this.

This is how 'workforce engagement ' is done in the NHS
The workforce who deliver care are not seen as subject matter experts. It's is a missed opportunity to really improve productivity and safety

Hi Sally i was one of 194 people on today's call. Lots of 'menti' feedback. The intro said it'll be a 'packed agenda' & 'pacy'. Is this what we need? I found it frustrating- all the same old shallow thinking- this busy format isnt going to bring depth. Any scope for smaller groups & richer dialogue?
