One in every 250 primary care practices is open to adding an FM or IM physician but they are in the stage where they're aware they have a problem and may even be considering solutions. That means they haven't decided to get serious and make a job post. To find these opportunities, you need to use one of two sources: - your personal network - someone else's network #familymedicine #familydoctor #primarycare #internalmedicine #outpatient #internist

Today, the British Medical Association has published the first guidance for doctors supervising physician associates (PAs) and other medical associate professionals (MAPs), in an attempt to clarify the somewhat fuzzy and at times difficult position they have found themselves in.   While MAPs have always had to work under the supervision of doctors, it is widely accepted that the responsibility of those doctors has not, until now, been made sufficiently clear, and there was a perceived risk of MAPs seeing patients without sufficient supervision.   The new guidance sets out for the first time which doctors should be available throughout a MAPs shift (previously, in some cases, supervisors have been unreachable) and how qualified they must be. This means, in practice, MAPs must have a named doctor with sufficient seniority and training supervising them at all times.   The guidance also emphasises the importance of supervising doctors having allotted time for discussions with PAs, and to review patients.   The guidance can be found here: https://shorturl.at/8VsdN   Further commentary from the BMA can be found here: https://shorturl.at/nuUdb   If you would like further context, Candesic Senior Partner Dr Michelle Tempest and Special Adviser Dr Joe Taylor looked at the role of PAs in LaingBuisson’s HealthcareMarkets last month.

Human connection...that's what it's all about... We live, we do all the things...and eventually we stop...but between the start and finish I believe our lives are built on how we connect with others. Just feeling grateful today that my job allows me to love others well, through my work as a local family physician. That is all...#gratitude #worklifebalance #loveoneanother #humanconnection #patientcare #doctorlife #dpc #privatepractice #lancasterpa Luz Medicine

Have you ever had the conversation whether you want to be hooked up to life support if something ever happens? Have you ever thought about how much medical intervention you want at the end? A POLST (Physicians Order for Life Sustaining Treatment) can help navigate these conversations and direct all medical staff to your wishes. The following article discusses the difference between a POLST and DNR. https://lnkd.in/eHnGsf23

Really, really interesting article - thanks for sharing this Sarah Clarke… tough reading that demands a broader audience. This isn’t just a UK issue in my view - role erosion is a problem in any sector dependant on highly trained professionals, and the objective of many who call for greater automation. Technology, especially in areas like AI, are important to invest in and develop, but the line we have to be incredibly careful not to cross is once it starts to degrade expertise at the expense of policy and expedience.

Check out our article on how medical residents may be impacted by the complaint process at the College of Physicians of Ontario. These proceedings can result in professional consequences and can also consider "off-duty" conduct. https://ow.ly/2LJT50QW5ga
