NHS E-Learning
In the last few years, online training has been introduced across my trust. Generally these are OK, if a bit slow and patronising. But you get the chance to go over things if you need to and can break off if needed. And it saves me having to waste a day in a classroom when I can take out 1-2 hours and be done. However the online Fire Training is shit; firstly despite me finishing it 6 times it won't sign me off as completeing it. But also, because it is utterly contardictory. Initially we are told that, in the event of a fire, our first priority is to evacuate the building and assemble outside. Then, we are told our first priority is to get our patients out the building.

Glad that's clear then.

I liked the video on how to adjust my chair.
I can't believe that through 5 years of medical school and another 4 working in hospitals NO-ONE had sat me down and shown me how to adjust my chair to the right height.

Our jovial Health & Safety man
got very upset at my refusal to stand my monitor on a box. In the end, I put it on the box, just to let him get on with his day. I then promptly took it down again.
Box ticking exercise, par excellence.

Makes sense to me - surely evacuation is the process of emptying something. If you leave patients in the building then it isnt evacuated.

If they'd have said the first priority was to LEAVE the building, and then that the first priority was to get the patients out, that would be a contradiction.

It's a badge of honour in our trust that if you READ the presentation thing before answering all the, ridiculously easy, multiple choice questions, then you're clearly some kind of cunt.

It terrifies me that you work for the NHS, yet can't spell completing and don't understand what a contradiction is.

Probably a secretary/admin staff given that level of literacy.
