feral housewife, occasionally an anaesthetist

Going to @NAPS_UK in a few weeks, and with this being their 35th anniversary year, we're being asked to share a photo of ourselves from 1990. Now, how do I put this... *calling mum* "Hey have you got any antenatal ultrasounds of me?" Love the idea, can't wait for the event!

Does anyone know when applications for @WelshFellows open this year? I'd hate to miss it!

Did you know you can be working in the UK as a doctor for years after passing IELTS at C2 (proficiency) level and a bunch of postgraduate exams, but to get a British passport you still need to pay £200 for a 12-min B1 (intermediate) English certification. Makes sense right.

What's people's experiences of working and training in pregnancy in different specialties? Is there a legal framework for on calls or entirely department/hospital dependent? I've heard some horror stories about being forced to work nights until term...😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Finally after so many years in Wales I work in a hospital where Welsh is regularly spoken and I love it! Now just need to learn the language 😂

How can NHS improve the retention of IMG doctors? Starter pack 🧵 Please stop telling non-training grade doctors that they are just service provision & shouldn't expect help with personal development & training.

Dear 🇬🇧, As we approach the NHS 75th anniversary, here's your reminder that 10 years ago, it was ranked the #1 healthcare system on Earth. You don't need a new system. You need a new govt that won't intentionally destroy it for their own financial benefit. #SOSNHS #NHS75

Thank you! Effective and tested aide memoire lanyard card for paeds resus, achieved with the help of fantastic colleagues from @AneurinBevanUHB and @airwaywales funding. Would love to know WSA's (and everyone's) thoughts on how to share this with more trainees - more 💰 needed

The view of trainees can be quite different to the consultants who are involved in the development. #TC2023 @Anaes_Trainees

It is our belief that prosecuting a woman for ending their pregnancy will never be in the public interest. Read our full position here: fal.cn/3z1v4

I've applied for citizenship. Yet somehow even after 7 years here, my mechanic is Polish, my builder, carpenter, plumber and electrician all Polish, I only eat meat and dairy from the Polish shop and never bought British honey. You can take Jo out of Poland but...😆

The problem with quality improvement projects and making any changes in departments/hospitals is that you only really have an impact only once you become a consultant. That's if you have any will left at that point, having constantly hit a wall throughout training.

Has anyone ever used FRCA as English language evidence on a citizenship application?
