My response to inaccurate information which @IrishTimes published on #prostatecancer & #screening was not accepted in @ITletters. Given the gravity of publishing incorrect recommendations & the impact this has on men & front line GPs, itโs important to have the error documented.

Free AT POINT OF CARE!
These are the ANNUAL fees your GP Practice will get for providing 24/7 care for UNLIMITED appointments.
And we also PAY (5k) and WORK(200h) in OOH for the pleasure.
This is called capitation and with this fee we pay for ALL running costs of practice.

View from abroad: @TheBMA and @rcgp have advised successive UK governments of decades inadequate resourcing General Practice UK, overburdening of bureaucracy and tiers of oversight - a hasty response will only exacerbate #beagp @NHSuk

We need 150 vaccines for our next Covid vaccination clinic
Found out yesterday we are due to receive 30
This means 32 vulnerable elderly patients will not receive their 2nd vaccine on time.(plus no 1st doses)
These 2nd vaccines were guaranteed by the HSE

I am physically having to go through files as we have no computer system to find our cohort for vaccinations.. I am literally walking up and down the corridor from filing room to computer to input info.. Ridiculous in this day and age

We were planning a #StPatricksDay Covid Vaccine Clinic
Agreed schedule is 2nd dose to over 85s and 1st dose to 75-79 year olds this week
We got NO VACCINE for our 75-79 cohort so no vaccine remaining after today!
Happening all around country. Not GPs' fault

Vaccinated a man today- when I told him Iโm an SaLT he said: โYou have no idea how much I respect your profession. Iโm a throat cancer survivor and your colleagues saved my life. You gave me my life back when I had to relearn how to swallow. Youโre truly underratedโ โค๏ธ #mySLTday
