Patient confidentiality is binary. Getting a final warning suggests previous breach as opposed to a first warning. My wife and I have worked in the NHS for a total of 60 years between us. Grace would have been a Doctor in the NHS when she qualified. So personally hurtful.

It’s horrific. Such a betrayal of professional integrity. I’m so sorry for the pernicious loss of your beautiful Grace x

Everything feels broken - such colossal failure, evasion, incompetence. Superficially we might think things are fine but they really aren’t. 🙏❤️

Any decent human would be horrified what’s happened throughout this case and hearing the constant failures. None of you deserve this pain that will always be there. I wish you strength 💙❤️💙

I have sat on disciplinary panels. Issue of a final warning does not necessarily imply there has been a previous transgression. It is simply that there can be no more in future.

NL4 months ago

It is normal in the nhs to go straight to final warning if dismissal deemed unsuitable. It doesn’t necessarily mean any previous breach. However I have usually known confidentiality breaches to result in dismissal and agree not to do this is hurtful and wrong.

Grotesque behaviour. Name and shame these “professionals”.

Spending £Bs on IT contracts and no oversight or "red flags" on confidentiality breaches? Breaches found by the victims... The NHS is fundamentally broken with a vacuum of leadership. Wait for the "We will learn the lessons"..

I've recently retired as a civil servant. In my job this would be regarded as gross misconduct and be automatic dismissal.

That must be so painful to hear that I’m sorry that a terrible breach of professional trust has happened to you and your family on the loss of your beautiful daughter thoughts are with you 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

If public sector staff can view your files and deny it, assume they will. V topical now HMRC has access to your bank accounts.

Julie A Smith4 months ago

Although the wording suggests there were previous warnings, it’s actually a disciplinary term that if the behaviour happened again it would be instant dismissal. It’s not like the sickness process where it goes through stages and warnings etc. Peace to you 🙏🏻

I don’t understand the final warning? Surely gross misconduct (which accessing records you’re not entitled to is) should be instant dismissal

I’m so sorry this happened to you. In the police, a final written warning can be given for first-offence gross misconduct, ie conduct serious enough to justify (but not necessarily require) dismissal without notice. Misuse of police databases almost always leads to dismissal.

This is where ‘lumping’ the whole of the NHS together is one huge mistake. (Coming from a large ‘medical’ family) People are people, just because they have a lanyard around their neck do not bestow ‘Angel’ status! Bored,admin grade2/3 ‘tittle tattlers’ and a computer system….

NHS trusts have a privatized management suite who enjoy all the perks, and on the ground they can employ people with no ethics, to get away with whatever they like - it's their perk. The ecosystem of zero ethics. There was no deterrent to this behavior, as no regulation see.

My name is Dr Chris Day. I have been fighting an NHS whistleblowing case for the last 10 years and the case is still showing no signs of being over. The London South Employment Tribunal have allowed the NHS to turn what should have been a straightforward whistleblowing case, lodged by a doctor in 2015 into a circus that is still ongoing in 2025. These antics have cost the taxpayer over a million pounds and prevented serious patient safety issues being dealt with and has also damaged other doctors' legal whistleblowing protection. The way this case has been handled has not been done in private, large numbers of NHS staff and patients have read the papers and attended my hearings At the Royal Society of Medicine, I attempted in 15 minutes to explain my 10 year jungle of a whistleblowing case which you can see clip of on the below video (full talk here). The video starts with me explaining the patient safety issues and avoidable deaths that started all this in 2014. It ends with the crazy position we have ended up at..

Lord Stevens, former NHS chief executive, speaks for the first time (I think?) in committee stage. A really significant intervention: —NHS should not be involved since some will receive AS motivated by non-health issues (eg financial problems or feeling like a burden) —The bill redefines the NHS Charter, in a “somewhat camouflaged” way —AS is completely different from withdrawal of treatment —If AS is part of NHS, “risks undermining the trust that people have in their clinicians” —Risks increasing pressure on people to choose AS to “protect the NHS” —Govt have been “less than forthcoming” about the future of palliative care, and have not straightforwardly answered his question from two months ago

While patients wait years for surgery and months to see a specialist, Wes Streeting and Keir Starmer are threatening to cut the number of NHS specialist doctor training jobs. Most people don’t realise this, but doctors can’t just become Consultants, Surgeons or GPs on their own. They have to get a speciality training job first. These jobs are controlled and capped by the Government. So when the Government talks about cutting speciality training jobs, what they are really talking about is cutting the number of future specialist doctors in this country. At a time when the NHS already doesn’t have enough doctors. At a time when waiting lists are in the millions. At a time when patients are waiting months just to see a specialist and years for operations. Cutting the number of specialist training jobs will not fix the NHS. It will make waiting lists longer. It will make it harder to see a doctor. It will make the NHS worse for patients. Threatening to reduce the number of future doctors while patients are already struggling to access care is not just a deliberate workforce policy decision. It is a direct threat to the NHS and to the public who rely on it, coming from a ‘Labour’ Government.
