Mistakes have always been made, I've seen some real humdingers. I don't know whether the NHS is more open these days, or whether patients are more on the ball, but we do seem to hear more about them. It is better, in many ways, because the NHS is more accountable. Patients used to put up with what they got, and be grateful - very nice for those who were less than competent, not great for the patients. Not any more.
