What about all the (ex?) biomeds in the NHS who spend all their time in Management, Training, "Clinical Governance", AfC "duties", Union activities ... and all the rest?
@Rob: I restrained myself from replying yesterday, but here goes:-
Yes, John's response seems logical enough at first glance, but (there again) Bill's comment is a valid one.
In the absence of any definitive figure to your question being presented here (in the Old Days, the DHSS at Elephant and Castle - or even Eastwood Park - probably would have known), why not try this:-
1) How many NHS Trusts?
2) How many biomeds at each Trust (on average)?
So ... what's the answer?
Circa 1,200 would be my guess (and a guess is all it is).
@Bill: why is Rob asking? I suspect he's trying to work out if he can afford to hire them all!
