Sometimes the NHS can be exceptional. Other times the standard of care is absolutely shocking. Both in the case of some of the junior doctors and senior consultants really do not deserve to be doctors. Pay rises - ha I say. You have got to be joking. Management should not be paid because you can only describe what is happening as complete incompetence.
I appreciate the importance of free health care. I believe we need it. However we are paying for a service that needs a complete overhaul.
We once said we were proud of these people but what they are delivering, not everyone, but many who should be banned from ever practising, who are walking law suits, almost deserve a special place in the deepest recesses of the burning centre well below ground.
I am referring to a certain part of a certain hospital. I have been beyond disappointed and I am certain it is a systemic issue.
We should have quality care despite staff and resource shortages. It's not just numbers. It's about basic human decency.
Whether Sir Kier's plans to overhaul the NHS with online appointments actually addresses the heart of the problem and understands how the rot is spreading, well I wonder indeed. Read the comments for the YT video, and you see many also don't seem to think the ship is on course into the sunset.
Rant and outrage over for now. Let's fix the NHS and do better if we don't want a broken Britain.
