Damned lies, More lies and stats - a Research Blog

 When your own NHS GP Practice sends you a text like this, most people would tend to reply to it and not actually look at it's contents. But I did, and here's what I found. First of all, this isn't a NHS England commissioned service, that "helps the NHS to track Flu, Covid and RSV". How do I know this ? well I looked and checked the url > www.takeatestuk.com There's no mention on the website that states how the NHS / NHS England are involved in this "testing". This website is also badly designed and written and is a very basic blog site, and there's no contact information, just a contact page thats also very basic. So who is running this - health scam ? and why hasn't the NHS or any GP staff picked up on this ? Website :  https://takeatestuk.com/ Contact page with a mobile number on it (no office number etc) :  https://takeatestuk.com/contact-us/ - What happens when you enter the "voucher code" ? Interesting how it says the follo...

 Exclusive Investigation : In 2023, NHS England introduced "wellbeing health coaches" in to GP surgery and into hospitals. The workforce development framework can be found here https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/workforce-development-framework-health-and-wellbeing-coaches/ which links to https://www.england.nhs.uk/long-read/workforce-development-framework-for-health-and-wellbeing-coaches/ Health and wellbeing coaches are non-clinical, personalised care roles. They work with people with physical and/or mental health conditions, people with long-term conditions and those at risk of developing them.   Please note, it clearly notes that these roles "are non-medical" , and this small note will be of importance later on to do with access to medical records and data protection.
