Doctors Available 7 Days ?
http://
This 7 days a week plan is already starting to unravel. Its seems the BMA isn't keen :::
"David Cameron needs to "get real" and ditch his "surreal obsession" with opening GP surgeries seven days a week, a senior GPs' representative says"
My own GP Practise has been trying to replace their 3rd Doctor, since he retired 2 years ago and has had no luck whatsoever..#
Maybe dave will have to stuff the Doctors mouths with gold again, just like my Avatar did in 1948 !
But where is the gold going to come from this time ?

…. and I’ll re-post here what I posted there.
////This is being trialled with some success and is working by practices sharing the workload as well as records.
//A total of 1,100 practices have subsequently signed up - one in eight - although only just over a quarter of those have actually got new projects up-and-running currently.
Nonetheless, the Conservatives have been so impressed by the success of the schemes that they now want to extend them and provide everyone with access to GP services seven days a week by 2020.//

Mikey, //Just where are the staff going to come from, for this 7 day opening ?//
//Ministers have already announced an extra 5,000 GPs are being trained, while Labour said it would recruit an extra 8,000.//… so rather more ambitious.
Give it a chance.////
One could be forgiven for thinking that some people would relish its failure.

Oh! Dear.......the NHS comes up regularly almost every 6 months now in some form or other and Ingive my oft discarded replys.
40 years ago one could see one ,s GP on the very same day or at least the next day. The GP practice organised it's own oncall for night and weekends so that a patient callin would usually get a practice doctor.
So here we are billions of pounds paid to the doctors in the past 40 years and the service is a DISGRACE.
Why?
The NHS is a well thought out scheme supported by all directions of POlitical ideology during which time, the GP,s have misplaced their function as a sorting house and taken on work for which they are ill trained and with it an degree of arrogance. This has been well supported by the BMA , a strong left wing union, which has the face of "don't touch my boys" and this is supported by a Labour government and a Tory government which dare not rock the boat for Political reasons.
The public have to face some of the responsibility......they have laughed at other health care systems, arrogantly pronounced "the NHS, the Envy of the World" and will have to change their idea of health care.
If a newly qualified doctor has little ambition, then settle into the NHS....no competition, good salary and pension guaranteed and "fill her boots."
If you as a GP has any ambition.......then emigrate.
The Consultants...the Government, BMA do not care a jot as they know that in the UK,the. Public are wary of aspired successes.
Will arise.
Sorry about the post, but in 10 years, the same criticisms

During one of the disastrous re- disorganisations of the NHS
unemployment of junior doctors was a ministerial objective ( to drive costs down I think on market principles ) - and NZ and Oz advertised - " if the NHS doesnt want you come to us " and thousands did
One junr dr shuffled up to me, and asked 'your niece is petra pedant innit ? ' and he said ' she emigrated to NZ (yup) and I didnt. It was the worst decision of my life. I feel as tho I have wrecked my life. '
o bloody hell !
