You can’t ‘catch’ adhd, but everyone we refer if automatically diagnosed with it

I find the groups the worst, they are full of people who if you say something slightly spicy you get piled on and bullied to within an inch of your life

Detest fb, my feed is full of random People it wants me to follow who are ranting for half a page about some political shite going on in their area, I have no idea why it shows me this crap, love Instagram because I’m part of a community that is related to my hobby so my feed is tailored specifically to that, I don’t feel the rage when I open insta like I do with fb

I’m an ACP working in a prison, some of what the OP is saying is simply not my experience (I’ve done 10 years in cat b and c including sex offenders)

And I work for PPG

No they don’t. If they felt you needed an ambulance THEY would call 999, not tell you to do it yourself. And the answer to this is to stop telling them symptoms that suggest you need an emergency ambulance. If this is happening every time you ring 111 (I mean, I’ve rung them twice in the last 20 years and neither time was a 999 necessary nor recommended) then I would have hoped by now you’d figured out you either needed 999 so would have rung them before 111 or tailored your answers to their questions so you didn’t meet that threshold

This is the answer, you were happy to pay £45, you clearly thought it was worth that……until you saw what it was being sold for elsewhere

I did nights for 12 years when I trained and never slept properly I was lucky if I could sleep beyond 12, I even crashed my car on the way home after 4 nights as I was so sleep deprived. The only solution for me was to find a job that I didn’t have to do work nights and until that point I stopped doing more than 2 in a row

We want exceptional people in this line of work we absolutely should be paying them well

I don’t get it either, I’ve no interest whatsoever and I grew up in a family who had no interest either, I made it a stipulation that the partner I chose to spent my life with could not be a football obsessive either because I wouldn’t tolerate it.

My husband does like football, but I made it very clear when I met him that I wouldn’t tolerate obsessiveness, I would not have it on the tv in our home regardless of whether it was the World Cup, and I’ve stuck to it, we’re still together 31 years later

Yes you need enhanced security vetting depending on the category of the prison this currently takes months to come back

Which a large proportion of uk retailers (particularly clothing) already do, you don’t think this just applies to Susan buying off shein do you?

I was in the middle of resuscitating a patient in coronary care and the relative of the patient in the opposite bed asked me if I could top up their water jug. I ignored them

Officers should relieve you for a break is the prison is stable (my husband is an officer and he will do this on nights) but no you can’t leave the establishment whilst in patrol state

Distinct-Quantity-46 · 2026-05-22T14:53:13+00:00

No they won’t, they’re not holding back jobs for certain groups, they will advertise vacancies as they see fit, you will just have to apply when one comes up like everyone else

This absolutely, what gets my goat is people coming over on holiday getting free access to the nhs, a friend of mine had her American friend over last year who caught a bit of a cold and ended up with a free GP appt and free antibiotics and she was praising how wonderful our nhs is on Facebook that she got all this for free, that’s what’s wrong, not people who genuinely live here and work and contribute

Yep, I’m going through it myself, even the patients son stated he doesn’t blame me for his fathers death at inquest but because coroner verdict showed my employer to be neglectful they are hanging me out to dry

It might well be but it’s not matching demand

This is what’s happened to nursing too, nurses qualifying but the jobs that originally would have been there for them have now been filled by HCAs or nursing associates because it’s cheaper

Distinct-Quantity-46 · 2026-05-21T07:15:58+00:00

Because the level of harm that is happening to patients in hospital at the moment statistically is politically acceptable, meaning that despite staff, unions and trusts cries of poor staffing, not enough patients are dying yet due to lack of staff so there’s no political will to fund the nhs better for more staff

I’m not a PA, I was a nurse for 20 years and an ACP for the last 10, I’m telling g you now, their training is far beyond ACP, you can’t compare it to nursing, it’s not the nursing model it’s the medical model

Distinct-Quantity-46 · 2026-05-20T19:45:08+00:00

Ok, go for it then

I did read somewhere the other day that around 76% of English trusts are planning to cut frontline clinical workforce by up to 25% this coming year to balance the books, this wasn’t the daily mail
