There
are some real morons at present who are medical “leaders” and false
“professors” as can be seen by this latest announcement from a certain Royal “College”.
Now
if you were a GP wanting to return to practice what would you want to tempt you
back?
1)
Not having to pay a minimum of just under £ 11,000 a year for basic medical
defence insurance? Of course not patients are far more important.
2)
A highly paid stress free job, free of the NHS institutionalized bureaucracy one
of the reasons you left in the first place whereby seeing and treating patients
was (once) an option and the reason
you became a doctor in contrast to today’s box ticking for bureautards fully
supported by a certain Royal “College”?
Of
course not, comrades, reflection is far more important than treating patients
it achieves bugger all (for patients)
other than ticking another box for retards.
3)
A job with reduced workload (most GPs
leave because of workload) and the opportunity to see real illness in contrast
to socialized inadequacy?
Of
course not comrades completing an e-portfolio each year is far more rewarding
and important and so by adding to workload it merely reduces your stress after
seeing the odd patient who may, or more likely not, have anything wrong with
them but the RCGP does not do illness.
4)
No annual appraisal or any other such crap (all
for the benefit of the Party and its bum chums at the GMC et al)?
All
of which are but some of the (many) reasons
why you left as a GP in the first place.
So
if a Scottish womble says ah way hin, that must be terrible, I feel your pain and
while I am here can I explore your Ideas, Concerns and Expectations of why you
wish to return (not) to practice and do
absolutely nothing about your problems after pretending to listen while
appearing concerned and
then goes on to say I think I can help, would you like a free year’s membership of the
RCGP as there is a loads of evidence of its benefits together with that of crystal
healing, quantumtouch and homeopathy?
We suspect that most GP (even) thinking of a return to
practice (after 20 pints of Old Scroty Grundge and a serious head injury) would view this in the same way as someone asking you to come and see some puppies.
Most
GPs of a certain age who actually had the option of joining said Royal “College”
would think and would once have known the true meaning of the word to “ice”
someone.
Currently
membership of this alleged “college” is compulsory as they are the Party
groomers of GPs to be to fix social not medical problems and as such the “College”
has a degree of (political) impotence
but most GP registrars are bright enough to realize that its methods are so
flawed that they are retarded (sic the
e-portfolio, reflection et al)
although its alleged “leaders” think otherwise.
GP
registrars also know that such reflections can screw them more than their
trainers do now but none at the RCGP can see this for most believe that the sun
revolves around something dark called reflection which is essentially the art of
self colonoscopy with the light switched off and then saying I can see
everything more clearly now to your trainer or appraiser.
So if this is aimed at GPs who have left general
practice and maybe older ones we are sure that those proposing it on high think
that GPs can still be bought by baubles, beads and trinkets from the RCGP when schemes
offering tens of thousands of pounds have failed to attract GPs to general
practice posts.
The
war on the lack of GP recruitment will, comrades, be over by Christmas by this
simple, innovative intervention of the RCGP for less than the cost of a First World
War rifle (Lee Enfield) today by provision of up to £ 519 of RCGP membership will
mean that GPs not currently in practice will like lemmings be flooding back soon
in droves to return to work.
Clearly
many hours of institutionalized retardation at the Royal “College” will have
led to this earth shattering idea and we are sure that they will reflect at
length on its success when it achieves absolutely nothing useful like a GP
returning to work. Their e-protfolio will be full of brown stuff with which to
discuss with and impress their appraiser.
The muppets retaking Manhattan perhaps by a “New
Deal”? You can see Jeremy’s smile now as he knows he will meet his 5000 new
GP target thanks to his friends . . .
Praise
be to the Party for understanding why no-one wants to be a GP and thinking that
baubles, beads and trinkets are the answer. And that is just those that claim
to represent the profession that they do not understand.
