How much more of this institutionalised incompetence do we have to take before we wake up and admit that it does not work and a new approach is needed?
I was sorry to read your terrible experience that became some one close to you Bob, but as somebody who has spent more than there fair share on wards in six hospitals over the past 30 years, I only have praise for the doctors nurses and related professions, without whom I wouldn't be here today, I have never had any cause to complain, except about the food in my first ever stay in hospital Bury General, apart from that I feel very humble and indebted to those wonderful people for the first class care I've received. The only complaint I've ever had is with the administration side of NHS, which really does leave a lot to be desiredand is certainly top heavy
