Maternity failings at scandal-hit hospitals are becoming more widespread, according to the Care Quality Commission. In a review of 131 maternity units across the NHS in England, 48% have been rated as requiring improvement or inadequate. Anita Rani gets the latest from BBC health correspondent Nick Triggle, and speaks to NHS midwife and author Leah Hazard about whether women can keep themselves safe on maternity wards.On 22 September 1994, the American TV show Friends premiered on NBC. Monica, Rachel, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler and Ross became household names. To celebrate its 30th anniversary, Anita speaks to one of the show's writers and producers, Betsy Borns. Plus, we hear from journalist Emma Loffhagen about why the show still resonates with Gen Z all these years later. Reporter Melanie Abbott joins Anita – she has been investigating breast implant illness. Thousands of women are having their implants removed because they think they are making them sick. We hear from Caroline George who had hers taken out four months ago, and from a doctor and researcher, Prabath Nanayakkara, in the Netherlands who has been running a specific clinic for this for 12 years. He thinks that the UK desperately needs a similar resource.

Let's face it - CQC inspections can be scary stuff for principals and managers (and even associates!) As per your request, I brought on a CQC Specialist Advisor, Dr Chita Davda to share her top tips to passing with flying colours. https://youtu.be/iLkclWANzsk Watch GF021 on Youtube We discussed the common things that CQC checks on a practice, common questions they ask, and some tips on how to pass the examination. The emphasis is on understanding that the CQC and dental professionals share the same core ethics. Inspections aren't about catching each other out but ensuring the best possible care for patients. Need to Read it? Check out the Full Episode Transcript below! If you want to learn more about Dr Chita, you can check out her website https://www.trainwithchita.co.uk In the upcoming CPD event at The Shard, attendees will get a rare opportunity to hear from a lead inspector from the CQC. This provides a chance to debunk myths and understand common errors, offering clarity to dental professionals.

Click below for full episode transcript: Yeah, so we try and keep it as fair as possible. And obviously we'll ask permission of the dentist just to make sure they're okay for us to go through it. [Jaz]And if they say no, is that a cheat code? [Ruchita]If they say no, then we feel like you want something to hide. Try not to say no. I've had it queried a couple of times, but also we have like a warrant when we go into a practice. So in theory, we are able to access what we need to. But I'd also, as a fellow dentist, I like to just keep that respect for everyone. So even if I have to look at the drawers inside a dent, like a surgery, I'll always just be like, do you mind if I have a look? If there's anything you don't want me to see, maybe just get rid of it for a few minutes and then put it back in if that's okay. Jaz's IntroductionHello, Protruserati. I'm Jaz Gulati and welcome to a group function. We haven't done one of these episodes in a long while. A GF episode is basically when we take a question from the Protruserati. And you know what? I've always kind of shied away from compliance, right? Compliance type things don't excite me so much, but it's important to cover because that's what allows us to practice our dentistry safely. And that's exactly what today is about. So there's something in the UK called the Care Quality Commission or the CQC, and every dental practice needs to have some sort of inspection at some point from the CQC to make sure that everything is safe and well for that practice to deliver patient care. So I brought on today Dr. Ruchita Davda to talk us about what are the common pitfalls we make when it comes to these CQC inspections and how to make sure we pass with flying colors. There are no premium notes for this episode, but at the end you can get CPD for this by answering a few questions on the app. Otherwise, those of you listening, please enjoy those of you watching. It's not a super visual episode, but there's so many important nuggets. If you are a UK practitioner and you have a practice, or you're thinking about buying a practice one day, it gives you great insights into what the CQC actually does and how to make sure you are prepared for that eventuality. Please enjoy the episode and I'll catch you in the outro. Main Episode:Chita Davida, welcome to the Protrusive Dental Podcast. How are you? [Ruchita]I am good. Thank you. And how are you, Jaz?

A new report out today from the CQC - the Care Quality Commission - says that almost two thirds of maternity units provide dangerously substandard care that puts women and babies at risk. It has rated 65% of maternity services in England as either "inadequate" or "requires improvement", an increase from 54% last year. And yesterday saw the first debate in Parliament about birth trauma and the injuries suffered by some women in labour. The Conservative MP Theo Clarke has campaigned for better support for mothers following her own traumatic experience after giving birth to her daughter in August 2022. She gave her powerful testimony to Parliament in an effort to get birth trauma added to the women's health strategy and improve perinatal care for women. First we hear from Chief Executive of the CQC, Ian Trenholm, and then consultant obstetrician Dr Daghni Rajasingham. After Ruhama Wolle took on the bridesmaid mantle three times in the space of 18 months, she decided to never say yes to the role, ever again. She penned an open letter resigning from all future bridesmaid requests, addressed to all her family and friends in Glamour Magazine US, where she works as Special Projects Editor. She joins Anita Rani to talk about why she's opted out of the type of friendship being a bridesmaid requires. A prize-winning poet and currently Associate Professor of Creative Writing at Arizona State University, Safiya Sinclair, has now written a stunning memoir, How to Say Babylon. It looks at her childhood and teenage years growing up in an ultra-strict Rastifari family in Jamaica, and how literature and poetry changed the trajectory of her life. The soul/jazz singer Mica Millar has amassed almost five million streams on Spotify, and her debut album has been championed by the likes of Trevor Nelson and Jamie Cullum. This summer she's had sold out shows, festival appearances at Love Supreme and the Cheltenham Jazz Festival, plus opening slots for Gregory Porter and Lionel Ritchie. Mica is to perform at the Union Chapel as part of London Jazz Festival's opening weekend in November.

Since its closure was announced last July, Gids — the Gender Identity Development Service at the world-renowned Tavistock and Portman Trust — has become synonymous with mismanagement and medical scandal.It was supposed to be a haven for young people experiencing gender-related distress. Instead, following a string of complaints by whistle-blowers, an “inadequate” rating by the Care Quality Commission, a high-profile judicial review and, finally, a damning independent review, it was deemed unsafe.In its place, two new regional hubs were set to open, with several more centres to follow. For Gids's long-standing critics, concerned about the distress its tumult was having on children, this came as a huge relief.The story, however, does not end here.Kathleen Stock has spent the past month speaking to a range of clinicians, NHS professionals and parents of dysphoric children — to find out whether Gids's new service will be an improvement.The portrait she paints is stark: her findings suggest that the NHS gender services are yet to become a clinically safe space for children and teens, with senior figures still pushing an activist ideology. Only last week, NHS bosses internally announced that they are significantly delaying the launch of one of the hubs. And as she reveals in her investigation, it is unlikely to be the final twist in Gids's new chapter… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What are the roots of today's maternity crisis? Recent research by the Care Quality Commission has found a “concerning decline” in England, with over half of maternity wards rated substandard. Donna Ockenden's review of Shrewsbury and Telford maternity trust found that, between 2001 and 2019, 201 babies and nine mothers had died avoidable deaths. In this week's audio long read, the editor of the New Statesman's Spotlight magazine Alona Ferber traces the origins of this decline – from the advent of woman-centred care in the 1980s to today's more frayed and divided landscape. Are austerity and political indifference the key factors, and does an ideological split over ‘natural' and ‘medical' birth play a part? “Thirty years ago,” Ferber writes, “when power moved from the institution to the individual, that shift was radical, progressive and revolutionary. It was about women's rights and politics, as much as it was about health. But today the system is so stretched that the nexus of power is nowhere. It is not with clinical staff, nor with families. Instead, we muddle through.” Drawing on interviews with practitioners and her own birth experiences, she pieces together the elements of an ongoing crisis. Written and read by Alona Ferber.

Hence, it is no surprise many leaders choose concierge doctors to look after themselves and their families" ~Priyanka Chaturvedi, Managing Director, HealthClic, London, England UK LEARN MORE, https://healthclic.co.uk Dr Anuj Chaturvedi Medical Director & Family Doctor Dr Anuj Chaturvedi has been a doctor for over 30 years, and is our Medical Director.

His main specialties cover radiology, general surgery (with background in renal transplant) and preventive medicine along with bio-identical hormone replacement therapy. The HealthClic Ethos One of the biggest challenges when managing health is knowing what to prevent; and which are your biggest risks. As a leader upon whom many rely on, the consequences of a health crisis could be catastrophic for family, an organisation or even an industry. This is where our area of expertise delivers, as we simply cannot afford to be reactive when it comes to the care of our patients. While our focus is preventative medicine, we also take on some of the most complex cases in the country, often requiring intervention by global experts.

Hannah Barnes is Investigations Producer at the BBC's flagship television news and current affairs program, Newsnight. She has spent the last 15 years at the BBC, specializing in investigative and analytical journalism for both television and radio. Hannah led Newsnight's coverage of the care available to young people experiencing gender-related distress at the UK's National Health Service's (NHS) only youth gender clinic in England and Wales, the Gender Identity Development Services (GIDS) at the Tavistock in London.In this episode, Sasha and Stella speak with Hannah about how, although she continued to report and expose questions, nothing changed and she eventually felt compelled to write a book; as she says herself “I knew too much.” In this probing discussion, issues such as puberty blockers, overwhelming caseloads, and the impact of lobby groups, such as Mermaids, are highlighted and explored.Hannah's work at Newsnight ultimately helped precipitate an extensive review by the NHS and unearthed evidence that was later used in several sets of legal proceedings. Newsnight's reporting also led directly to an inspection by England's healthcare regulator, the Care Quality Commission, which branded the services provided by the GIDS clinic “Inadequate.” The service is scheduled to close in spring 2023 following a series of critical reports.Hannah's new book, Time To Think: The Inside Story of the Collapse of the Tavistock's Gender Service for Children, is a meticulously researched account of what went wrong at the Tavistock Clinic, which made headlines around the world on publication. In writing the book, Hannah studied thousands of pages of documents, including internal emails and unpublished reports, and well over a hundred hours of personal testimony from GIDS clinicians, former service users, and senior Tavistock figures, to write a disturbing and gripping parable of our times.Links:Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Time-Think-Collapse-Tavistocks-Children-ebook/dp/B0BCL1T2XNSwift Press: https://swiftpress.com/book/time-to-think/Waterstones: https://www.waterstones.com/book/time-to-think/hannah-barnes//9781800751118Newsnight coverage of GIDS at the Tavistock: https://www.bayswatersupport.org.uk/bbc-newsnight-coverageIf you liked this episode, more episodes you might find interesting:Episode “27 — Behind the Curtain: Psychotherapy for Gender Dysphoria with Sue and Marcus Evans” https://gender-a-wider-lens.captivate.fm/episode/27-behind-the-curtain-psychotherapy-for-gender-dysphoria-with-sue-and-marcus-evansEpisode “31 — Silencing Thought: A Conversation with Heather Brunskell-Evans”https://gender-a-wider-lens.captivate.fm/episode/31-silencing-thought-a-conversation-with-heather-brunskell-evansEpisode “64 — Pioneers Series: Psychotherapy Pre- and Post-Transition with Az Hakeem”

Ifirst encountered Beth Britton in 2013 at the Independent Age Awards, where she was named Best Independent Voice on older people's issues. I was one of those shortlisted alongside her and it was at the ceremony in central London that I first heard this young woman's incredible story, of how her dairy farmer father had developed vascular dementia when she was 12 and how his condition, with which he lived for a further 19 years, came to dominate her teens and twenties as she willingly sacrificed her chance of further education and a full-time career to focus on supporting him.During those almost two decades her father experienced what she describes as a myriad of health and social care services that varied from excellent to exceptionally poor. “What all the experiences had in common,” she says, “was what could be learnt from them to improve knowledge, awareness and care for all”.And to this end, after her father died in 2012 she set up her blog, D4Dementia, to provide support for people facing the many and complex social and health care challenges that she and her family had lived through. She sought to promote debate, improve dementia care and educate both care professionals and the wider population. By 2013, when I met her, she already had a sizeable and rapidly growing social media presence, and was a serious dementia campaigner. Alongside Beth's successful ten-year-old blog, sit a raft of other accomplishments. She helped plan and deliver the UK Government's first G8 Dementia Summit in 2013; she's a consultant, trainer and mentor whose had roles with care homes and charities, Government departments and national bodies such as Public Health England and the Care Quality Commission. Her list of public appearances and speeches is very, very long; and she often pops up on radio and television, where she's never less than polished, fluent and knowledgeable.She brings her professionalism, empathy and experience to bear on topics as profound as end of life care and as seemingly mundane but hugely important and detailed as skin integrity and swallowing issues. Running through all her work, as through mine, is her passion to ensure that the traumas and difficulties that she and her family experienced are turned into something positive. And in this, I think it's fair to say, she's succeeded.

Moving on from the BBC into events and direct to client delivery, Orla set up MyClearText with Elaine McCarthy to support clients and captioners to deliver high standards of live captioning and technical expertise in the delivery to ensure the best end product to end users. Working with Dan Dexter for many years to remove and overcome barriers to adding captioning  accessibility to livestreams for MyClearText, AccessLOOP was created to simplify the delivery of captioning, sign language and language caption translation. Dan is a highly experienced webcast engineer and producer who has worked for over a decade providing high quality streamed events, including product launches for OnePlus (1m+ viewers), Facebook, Asos, Atos, Body Shop, Care Quality Commission, Adobe and Harvey Nicholls plus many more. He has a particular interest in Diversity and Inclusion and has been working for a number of years to make live streaming more accessible. Dan has been working very closely with Orla and Elaine at MyClearText to work on solutions to make streaming much more accessible. This has resulted in the creation of AccessLOOP. AccessLOOP is the only tool on the market which allows the easy addition of live captioning, multi-language captions and sign language onto any streamed event.

The Compassionate Leadership Interview
Dame Jackie Daniel, equipping Newcastle Hospitals for success

Dame Jackie Daniel is Chief Executive of Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Executive in Residence with Lancaster University Management School, and co-chair of the Shelford Group, being the ten largest teaching and research hospitals in the UK National Health Service. She started her career in the early 1980s as a nurse. After 10 years of clinical practice she moved into general management, and has now been a Chief Executive for almost 20 years. In addition to her Nursing degree and a Masters in Quality Assurance in Health and Social Care, Dame Jackie is a qualified business and personal coach: when she became a Trust board director she found that she was spending a lot of time in coaching conversations, and wanted to improve her skills in what she regards as a critical area. Studying coaching equipped her with a range of tools and techniques to support people to flourish in a tough environment. Healthcare is a “people-centric business” and over the last decade or so, Dame Jackie has developed a programme for supporting staff to liberate their full potential. She says it is important in healthcare that people have a “discovery mindset.” She encourages her staff (and there are 17,000 of them) to be authentic and the best possible version of themselves. In May 2019 the Care Quality Commission inspected the Royal Victoria Infirmary, the Freeman, and the Dental Hospital and returned an overall rating of ‘Outstanding.' In reaching that verdict it cited the quality of the Trust's leadership, an inclusive and supportive culture, and a commitment to innovation and learning. The Trust's ‘Flourish' programme provides a means of sustaining that success over the long term. The programme has three domains: leadership and people (noting that people at any level in the organisation can lead), governance and risk management (including prioritisation and performance management), and the “relational fabric” of the Trust (communities of interest/networks of activity). Dame Jackie and her team work in 12-weeks blocks, so are constantly looking ahead and back, reflecting and learning from what has gone well and what hasn't. Communication is central to her approach. The 12-week system owes its origins to Agile project management, and enables the Trust to adapt rapidly to changing circumstances. The challenges facing the NHS right now are well documented – an ageing population, budgetary constraints, increasing costs of pharmaceuticals and medical equipment. Dame Jackie believes that in addressing these it is essential to acknowledge the relationship between health, wealth, and wellbeing. The city is taking a systems perspective by including within ‘Collaborative Newcastle' The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHSFT, the City Council, the universities, the mental health trust, social care providers, and GPs. On a wider scale the trust also plays an important role in a “provider collaborative” of eight NHS Foundation Trusts within the region. She says “we have stepped through every week of this pandemic together over the whole year.” Dame Jackie's proudest achievements include leading, as Nurse Director, a campaign called “Improving Working Lives” in the Trent Region. She is also pleased with the six years she spent at Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust (where failings at Furness General Hospital led to the avoidable deaths of at least 11 babies and one mother), leading the trust out of special measures, rebuilding the management team, improving care, and restoring trust within the local community. In Newcastle she is proud of raising the Rainbow Flag to celebrate LGBTQ staff and patients, and also being the first healthcare organisation in the world to declare a Climate Emergency. Jackie's biggest mistake was to take on a Chief Executive role to turn around a financially challenged trust. Though she was successful in achieving her goal, the job did not resonate with her leadership style or values, and she reflects that...
