The Leng Review into the role of PAs and AAs has launched its survey for healthcare professionals. We strongly encourage all anaesthetists to complete the survey and to make full use of the free text sections to elaborate on their views. ➡️ buff.ly/X7W7Pkf The survey closes on 30 March.

Excellently put. SAS and locally-employed anaesthetists are the most rapidly rising contributors for provision of anaesthesia, and our careers should progress to autonomy. This IS the workforce solution you are looking for, folks.
