00:00 - 00:03Does anyone want to discuss the monthly forum?
00:04 - 00:05I'm not sure I want to open that can of worms
00:05 - 00:07But I think we should discuss it
00:08 - 00:12These critical care paramedics are getting out of hand
00:12 - 00:15And they are taking up all our time
00:17 - 00:19I've been considering this problem for some time
00:19 - 00:21But wasn't sure how best to proceed
00:24 - 00:26But
00:27 - 00:28There's more
00:31 - 00:33They also want to be able to work on an unstaffed vehicle
00:34 - 00:36It's this AP64
00:53 - 00:58I want everyone but the COSMs to leave
01:13 - 01:15I've had enough
01:15 - 01:17Don't they know I'm on a secondment
01:18 - 01:23Don't they understand how vehicle movements work?
01:25 - 01:28They think it can be moved
01:29 - 01:31It's not that simple
01:31 - 01:34Emails need to be sent, every week
01:34 - 01:37And we have to plan them on GRS
01:37 - 01:40Can't they just work when I say
01:40 - 01:42And the annualised hours problem?
01:42 - 01:46Don't even get me started on that!
01:46 - 01:48I'm sorry - but they are so difficult to manage
01:48 - 01:52But we agreed to flexible working
01:53 - 01:54Who did that!
01:56 - 01:57How dare they have
01:57 - 02:00Commitments outside the APPCC team
02:00 - 02:03And make my life so difficult
02:04 - 02:08They want to work and fulfil their contract
02:08 - 02:13But they won't work 100% EOC
02:14 - 02:16They say they want clinical time
02:17 - 02:21And won't go everywhere in London when I need them too
02:27 - 02:29But I have a plan
02:30 - 02:34I will show them who's the boss
02:34 - 02:36And make life harder for them
02:41 - 02:42I'll send an email
02:43 - 02:47Enforcing that I am in charge
02:48 - 02:53And responsible for clinical operations
02:54 - 02:56Who are they to question my decisions
02:56 - 02:59They can not have an opinion
03:00 - 03:02They MUST not have an opinion
03:04 - 03:07It's OK, the clinical team will help
03:14 - 03:16They think we operate in a democracy
03:19 - 03:23I make so many, many
03:25 - 03:26decisions
03:31 - 03:33What decisions?
03:40 - 03:46Deployment, staffing, resource allocation and operational delivery
03:46 - 03:49Feedback will always be considered
03:53 - 03:56But we don't require collective agreement or approval
