I know you mean well Margaret but sometimes I do think you are blinkered by your loyalty to your profession and think all is good with the NHS
No of course it isn't right that women who have lost a baby are put on a ward with crying babies.
No, Neil. I am not blinkered because I am no longer active in nursing......and I know all is not good with the NHS.
(My daughter has had a very long and serious illness and so I have seen it in close focus, warts and all).
The NHS is hampered by politically motivated box ticking - which gives nothing to the people who use the service......it is top heavy with management. There are other things that need addressing too....but that would make a whole new thread.
