we joined the gold command group of senior managers, they were juggling patient numbers. during this meeting they raised the alert level to reflect the significant pressure they were under. icu were pretty much full again with no step downs. paedes is fine, maternity is in escalation. we are short ofjuniors, so we ve got at least two or three ward areas with no junior doctor on it at the moment. nearly 100 patients are being treated in overflow areas. consultants like vicky and shindu, who are voting on their own pay offer, are working extra hours during the strike. they sympathise with theirjunior colleagues, but they re tired. i don t think this is sustainable. we ve been doing this for many months now since last summer, and each industrial action has more impact on the workforce and it s more tiring. we are not robots, we are just humans. and so at some point the willingness of the workforce to do over and above is going to stop.
