The Australian government has launched a billboard campaign to recruit Irish medics. Perhaps Ireland should follow suit and launch our own campaign in Australia… My latest cartoon for @med_indonews #Cartoon #DoctorEmigration

Embedding private healthcare in the new #NMH, and giving it to the only voluntary hospital group with a large private hospital (who mortgaged it’s public hospitals to build its new private hospital) is not a way to guarantee equitable healthcare. My cartoon for @med_indonews

NCHDs are considering industrial action over working conditions in the health service. My latest cartoon for @med_indonews #StandingUp4NCHDs #Cartoon #HealthService

Social distancing ended in Ireland months ago, but the health service will continue its decades-long social distancing policy for NCHDs. We need more support for NCHDs who are required to move at their own expense, often far away from family, for training #StandingUp4NCHDs

So it looks like the Secretary General, Robert Watt, is actually who is responsible for the health service. Ironically, for someone who gained a reputation for being miserly with public funds, he’s been very generous to those at the very top of the health service.

While the Secretary General sees fit to grant himself a generous €80000+ payrise, his department has been dragging its heels on negotiating a contract with doctors despite record-breaking waiting lists and a shortage of consultants in all specialities.

This week is changeover for doctors in Ireland. The HSE moves us around the country, away from family and friends, with little-no-no support with housing, childcare, or travel. Meanwhile, the HSE CEO gets a sponsored chauffeured BMW (and a car allowance)! Cartoon in @med_indonews

The story about HSE CEO Paul Reid availing of a chauffeured BMW to ferry him from Leitrim to his office in Dublin is another suggestion that those at the very top of the health service are just looking out for themselves while HCWs muddle through ever-worsening work conditions

Instead of using the Sláintecare contract as a rare opportunity to improve the damaged relationship between doctors and the health service, the Department seems determined to use it as a means to drive those of us remaining away My cartoon for @med_indonews #slaintecarecontracf

>600 hospitalised with Covid, and one third of ICU beds occupied with the disease. If you’re not vaccinated, you are FAR more likely to be hospitalised and admitted to ICU with Covid, so please get vaccinated. #covid19ireland #covid19 #cartoon

Between *that* memo, and the months-long foot-dragging on paying the proper overtime rates, it’s a pretty demoralising time to be a NCHD in the HSE…

As a trainee, the “proposed” #slaintecarecontract was one of the most demoralising things I’ve seen since the two-tier pay plan of 2012, and certainly won’t help improve healthcare in Ireland. A better contract is needed to keep our doctors. #IHCA2021 #carecantwait @IHCA_IE

This cartoon is ever-green. Australia is making it easier for Irish doctors & nurses to emigrate there. Meanwhile, Ireland is debating a “Covid bonus” rather than focusing on things like conditions and pay that might actually retain our healthcare staff. smh.com.au/national/plan-…

Many military metaphors used in medicine were popularised with germ theory. Disease came to be seen as an external 'enemy' to be defeated rather than an imbalance of bodily humours. This is still how we see our immune system today. #JourneyThroughtheBody #ImmuneSystem #Inktober
