today my anthro professor said something kindof really beautiful:
“you all have a little bit of ‘I want to save the world’ in you, that’s why you’re here, in college. I want you to know that it’s okay if you only save one person, and it’s okay if that person is you”
I feel like a few people I know could stand to read this.
If you had never heard of the Netherlands, it’d sound like some kind of hellish Fantasy realm.
serious question are there any other channels in england besides bbc
BBC Four
bbc1 hd
BBC Five
BBC News 24
BBC Parliament
BBC HD
If you’re not into TV there’s BBC Radio 1
BBC radio 2, 3, 4 and 6
OMG
why are we ignoring the pun over there
Changeover day
Changing jobs every 4 months has got to be one of the best (but hardest) things about being a junior doctor. If you’ve not loved your job, you get to move on! And if you have loved it, well you get to go and try something new and learn new skills! You feel more like a real doctor with every rotation. And you’re so much more empathetic with the specialities you’ve worked with. No more bogus referrals and a much better working relationship with other departments. Win win!
On the Tuesday you feel like you’ve got your shit together. You know how things work. You can work the complex system. You’ve made lots of friends, and maybe some enemies too. You’re confident in your abilities. There are aspects of the job you’ve hated all along but all of a sudden you’re becoming sentimental and wishing you could stay. “Aw the shifts when I was covering A&E, 3 wards, maternity triage, labour ward and theatres were actually such great shifts. Loved them. It’s good to be kept on your toes!”
You always have great ambition to leave your clinical areas well organised, with a handover and a guide for the docs taking over from you to ease their transition. But then you realise that today is just as crazy and short-staffed as any other day and that all goes out the window. Keeping the patients alive another day will just have to be good enough.
Then it’s Wednesday. You feel like an absolute imposter. I can’t do this job. I’ve not got the first clue about what is wrong with you Madam. I better phone the reg, wait.. what’s her name again? Shoot, what’s the login for this computer? Where are the blood culture bottles? AHH I LOCKED MYSELF OUT THE WARD!!
Aah I forgot you guys up in Scotland aren’t striking! In England we’re facing another 48 hour emergency - only strike, with junior doctors only working emergency shifts (consultants and GPS continue as normal). I’m tired of strikes and of explaining why the new contract is a really bad idea. We all want to focus on our lives rather than marching and striking and writing about something that shouldn’t be an issue, for the thousandth time.
Changeover is always a bittersweet time. After four months in a job, you really start to feel like you know what you are doing. You finally feel like part of a team, it’s a comfortable place to be.
Then you start at your next speciality, which you may not have seen since sometime halfway through medical school. You don’t know the team and you don’t know how anything works, but you have to work your best to keep up with it all. It’s a chaotic time, and I think you’ve done a really good job of explaining why.
It’s a time of reflection.We think about the skills we have learned and the friends we have made. And we square up nervously to the next challenge. It’s made more complicated for many of us because our inductions need to be re - organised and our start at our next job will be even more chaotic than usual. But we’ll have to meet it with the same spirit that’s got us through this far. Good luck, everyone!
Very well said! We are all completely behind you and supporting you in getting the message through. We’re all fully aware that despite our government being supportive of us right now, that means very little if the NHS in England and the rest of the UK collapses. We are stronger together!
Good luck to everyone down South, meanwhile yes we lucky enough to be getting on with our new jobs straight away - but we are wearing our stickers and educating our patients in the process! The Jeremy Hunt Effect is unfortunately rife here too.
Thank you! We know so many of our colleagues are with us in spirit.
If this continues to go through, I suspect you will find a sudden influx of southern docs choosing Wales or Scotland!
