Improving Doctors' Working Lives

BMA Conference 
The BMA chairman, James Johnson has criticised the NHS's "exploitation" of foreign doctors and the "poaching" of doctors from the developing world, reports the Independent. The BMJ, in a more comprehensive article, also reports Mr Johnson's comments on junior doctor training; "Patients deserve fully trained doctors, and we have to provide them without working them 72 hours a week". Mr Johnson also argued that patient choice was not viable until there were enough staff to deliver it.
