GPs in England may stop monitoring vulnerable patients | Coronavirus

  1. Have a 92 year old dad who had a stroke last year. Mostly recovered, but he is absolutely vulnerable. Seems like folk are just washing hands of him and others like him.

  2. Pissed away £37bn on Trackity Trace.

    Disgusting organisational skills from the NHS.
    The death toll of incompetence will come to light in years to come. Government or the NHS are to blame

  3. Folk say Tories are trying to run NHS into the ground so they can replace with a shiny new US style monstrosity, presumably with thier family and buddies getting payoffs. Thought was to farfetched to believe. Not so sure now. Can anyone be as incompetent as this Government?

  4. The reasons why we had the QOF in the first place was to quantify and highlight potential long term care issues. Without it, GP surgeries will just be guessing and it will be impossible to highlight areas that are in need of improvement. It is also a way of “proving” that ultimately the GP service as a whole is underfunded and failing as a national provision. I can very much see why the government would like to bin it at the moment.

    It’s like OFSTED in education. No school wants an inspection due to the disruption and chaos it brings, and in some respects it may not even be fit for purpose. What it does do however is provide a benchmark so failing schools are identified and their provision marked for improvement.

  5. GPs aren’t needed to deliver jabs, this is something pharmacists or even volunteers can do after a day of training. BMA union leveraging covid jabs to change their contracts is a new low
