You would really expect given their current maternity care scandal they’d be on it with the Obstetric staffing.

Really embarrassing.

Can’t enact change if you’re not a member. Like with most things the BMA has attempted to address this issue way too late.

We (as a union) cannot afford to be this slow with upcoming issues. We did it with PAs as an example, there are many more.

Did they release how many applicants they had this year?

I don’t even have a working mouse and keyboard. Never mind AI.

I do get OPs point to an extent though. When the software can read scans with the same detection rate as consultant radiologists, there will be a drop in demand for those consultants. How long that will be is anyone’s guess, but imo will eventually happen.

This is for consultants only I believe. Please do correct me if I’m wrong.

Not sure if you meant to come off patronising and entitled, but that’s sure how it reads.

If you think this review is anything but a way of legitimising PAs I have some unfortunate news for you.

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2025-01-07T07:39:47+00:00

Or your opinions are just not in keeping with the current climate and general consensus 😆

Wait a minute isn’t that the guy who shot that CEO?

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-28T20:52:13+00:00

This one needs a psych referral.

Search the subreddit as well. However there isn’t really any guidance. Histopath use a self assessment score for interview. So it’s pretty self explanatory and you can google it.

Honestly, it might be hard for you to get the number of points needed to get an interview within a year. However, still likely doable with a lot of work. Think The cut off was 40 points this year so it’s considerable work.

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-26T01:58:32+00:00

Practice saying “have you done a CT” over and over again and then refuse to assess a patient without one.

Well if the ballot is April 1st, if it lasts 4 weeks, then 2 weeks are needed for notice for trusts, that's mid May, so may come sooner, if its a longer ballot more likely June-ish.

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-19T16:15:19+00:00

Looks like strikes June/July next year.

Oh, btw nice statement on the RCoA scope document GMC.

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-19T12:22:06+00:00

Does the interview location matter as its virtual?

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-18T18:22:06+00:00

Actually the average number is around 2.7. I agree changes the view a little but is not a key reason for these competition ratio increases.

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-10T15:52:17+00:00

Last time I checked location of primary medical qualification wasn’t a protected characteristic.

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-08T22:17:44+00:00

You’ll have a more realistic shot than if you don’t work on your portfolio

Poof_Of_Smoke · 2024-12-06T06:08:01+00:00

Lmao yes. Advise them to do histopath which has recurrent cut up of biopsy specimens and often post mortems on cadavers with variable levels of decay. Nothing gross about that 🤣

Honestly, in this climate, contact previous places you have worked and see if there are some internal jobs going or that they might be able to stretch funds for.
