“It won’t happen to me” and “that’s not my problem” are two of the biggest lies we tell ourselves about health. Yes, lifestyle habits matter, but they aren’t always enough. Medications have their place. Health isn’t guaranteed. Illness doesn’t ask for permission before it shows…
Pain relief is available for gynaecological procedures in the NHS. Always question why you are NOT offered it! In the NHS, There is & should be access to topical lidocaine injection, spray, entonox, and it should be routine. For pelvic exams, never agree to put your hands…
For 18 years, of a 30 year nursing career I worked in a full time in #GeneralPractice with supportive & proactive GP partners. I wish to see the same for the next generation of registered nurses. They deserve the very best, and as Simon says.. investment is needed. #GPNs

Regrettable that the largest safety critical professional group in healthcare was not asked about safety critical work, about doing it, the constraints or the opportunities, or the environment. Missing out a massive group of subject matter experts seems to undermine this report
Patient Safety Review. Where are the Nurses? Why are there so few women experts involved? What about an equity (GESI) assessment? Are we just designing the same unsafe system with the same voices? Again? My blog. @RoyLilley @MrsBosanquet @ShaunLintern linkedin.com/posts/dr-mario…
