Leading the NHS: Proposals to regulate NHS managers
In fulfilment of a manifesto promise, the Labour Government is planning to regulate NHS managers, and their proposals were out for consultation until Tuesday, 18 February 2025. the proposal The aims of this regulation, as stated in the consultation, are to make sure that managers and leaders have the right skills and values to support […]
Corridor care: A response to the RCN’s report.
I’ve heard health professionals joke about the ‘soundproof’ curtains around a patient’s bed-space, where confidential conversations are held behind flimsy fabric under the illusion of privacy. But in a hospital corridor? There is no illusion. Only illumination. Harsh fluorescent strips extinguishing any hope of privacy. Making night and day indistinguishable to those fighting for sleep […]
‘Judge Plus’ or just spin?
When Kim Leadbeater introduced the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, she reassured the concerned that it provided ‘the strictest safeguards anywhere in the world.’ One key safeguard offered was the involvement of a High Court judge in the process of assessment. Following the assessment of two doctors, it would be for the High […]
GPs and assisted suicide
Be it enacted by the King’s most excellent majesty. I am sure the recent introduction of the so-called ‘assisted dying’ bills through both Westminster and Holyrood has caused us to reflect again on the interface of medicine, faith, and society. I, therefore, could not ignore the Westminster Bill’s standard introduction quoted above. Surely, part of […]
The Supreme Court steps where politicians fear to tread
‘What is a woman?’ It’s the question that causes even seasoned politicians to break out in a cold sweat. We are currently awaiting a verdict from the UK Supreme Court, which is attempting to settle the question legally, once and for all. The hearing is the culmination of a long-running case, initially brought by campaigners […]
a day of darkness and expectation
I was deeply saddened as the speaker of the House of Commons read out today that Kim Leadbeater’s private members bill had passed its second reading with 330 MPs voting in favour and 275 against. Many CMF members and friends have met each evening throughout November to pray that the Lord would prevent this outcome. […]
legalisation of ‘assisted dying ‘ opposed by the British Geriatrics Society
Ahead of the forthcoming second reading of the Leadbeater ‘Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill’, the British Geriatrics Society (BGS) has published its current position statement on this vital issue on 31 October, based on an open, anonymised, and invited survey of its cross-professional membership, analysed and delivered by an openly constituted and transparent […]
a palliative care doctor’s response to the Leadbeater Bill
November 29, 2024, is a day that could be pivotal in our nation’s history. No turning back. However, I believe it won’t be, not if we unite. A few weeks ago, the story of David and Goliath was preached in my church. Never has a sermon spoken to me more clearly. As my husband gripped […]
what is Kim Leadbeater proposing?
With less than three weeks until MPs will be asked to debate and vote on her Bill, Kim Leadbeater has finally published the text of her ‘Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill’. Amidst busy schedules, this hardly seems a reasonable time frame for MPs to consider what Ms Leadbeater herself said is ‘potentially one […]
Truth and trust in transplantation
Transplant medicine is one of the greatest medical advances of the last century, but public trust is essential for it to attract potential donors – both living and deceased. For deceased donations to progress in most countries, even if the donor has expressed a wish to be a donor, their family members generally have to […]
Dying with dignity? The problems with the latest move to legalise assisted suicide
Dying with dignity in a caring, compassionate environment, surrounded by those we love. I don’t think anyone would want their or any other person’s end of life to be anything other than like this. However, how we achieve such a good death has become an increasingly hot topic of controversy. The fundamental disagreement over the […]
We are a multitude of voices
After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice: ‘Salvation belongs to our God, who […]
