just been to A&E for 7 and a half hours and only just got home people have been the same ampount of time waiting who is to blame for the very slow treatment? one lad stepped on a nail at work and his foot was throbbing and couldnt walk on it he could have been in a big mess if it got infected
Why would you NHS or Barnsley hospital be at fault for that Like stated below government cuts are to blame The last thing NHS or Barnsley hospital want is people waiting 7 hours Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I live in Pogmoor you can see the hospital from.my house I won't use the hospital in barnsley it simply isn't safe to do so Pinderfields for me sch for kids
My wife has packed in nursing in the hospital because the job is too understaffed and you get dogs abuse from the public who don't realise this. 40 grand a year wouldn't be enough and they're on nowhere near that
It's not the nurses fault it's the management fault And the ridiculous processes yhat they follow at barnsley Otherplaces are much better When my daughter broke her leg the pot fell off four time. The last pot was digging into her. The protocol at barnsley was cone back in ten days. Due to the four visits and the pot digging into her, we popped ti ti sch, they couldn't believe the state of the pot or the tens days wait. . New pot and appointment following day Oh thee also encouraged us to complain
My wife worked within the NHS from the age of 16 until she retired a few years ago. I was regularly astonished at what she and her colleagues did for the good of the service. Although latterly her hours were limited to 39 a week (I think, or maybe 37) she regularly did over 60 with no extra pay, because she wouldn't walk away when there were patients still to be seen. The tabloid press and other media don't help by reporting cases under the "They don't care" banner, when somebody has been left untreated. Believe me, they cared, and still do. The fault lies squarely with Government, which has cut funding steadily over the years until any fat has gone, the flesh has been stripped and they are down to the bone and still cutting. Cue yet more calls for privatisation of the NHS, because it clearly doesn't work! Like flogging a carthorse to death because you don't feed it.
It's how they privatise it. Strip it of funding. Make it worse so the attraction is a private organisation can make it better. In reality they might do initially (due to it being ragged to start with) but then these companies is are after profit. So services will be stripped in future to keep profits up. Efficiencies need to be made yes. But dam good reasons are in place for certain processes. Strip them processes and things go wrong. Quickly.
Don't worry, the people avoiding/evading tax worth an estimated £90bn a year are having a lovely time on the new luxury yachts and planes. Get back in your box, work hard and you can be just like them.
Leading report in 2014 said NHS was very efficient. I'd urge people not to simply repeat what the government said to the media and what the media then reported to you. If I wanted a reliable view on something, I wouldn't ask a parrot. Link
Hear, hear GFT. And the reappointment of the clueless Hunt as Health Secretary (mainly because Theresa Villiers turned down the job) further reinforces that trend. The A & E departments are stretched to buggery. Hunt is obsessed with his "7 day NHS", which will lead to weekday provision suffering so that we can pretend to provide the same service at weekends with no extra input of resources. If Hunt succeeds in forcing through the new junior doctors contract you will find that applications to proceed to specialism training will further reduce and the situation will become even more chronic. In fact I can tell you that this year's intake is much reduced due to concerns about hospital working hours and conditions, and the traditional August start to the new rotation ("Black Wednesday") has been put back to October. The relaxation of the 'fiscal rules' ought to allow May's government to take a fresh look at NHS funding. The fact is that the care has to be provided whether it is publicly or privately financed. It's just that private funding would further eat up available resources by building in a profit element for someone. As ever the poor, who will struggle to afford insurance, will suffer the most. Rant over.
Barnsley Hospital is top class compared to Huddersfield. To enter the latter you have to walk past smokers, some holding drip bags, and then you are greeted with dirty floors etc. My sister, who works in the NHS says more money would be made available if the got rid of many of the managers who are on high salaries and appear to do very little. Re. A&E I think the drunks who clutter the department at weekend due to overconsumption should be made to pay £100 for their treatment, similarly with any self- inflicted injury.
Are you saying you.dont need to walk past smokers at barnsley Actually you right you have to walk through the middle of rhrm
Barnsleys one of the most streamlined for management given they laid loads of them off over last few years.. One of the big problems is the way budgets are forecast...based on treatment costs demands from previous years against tje population of the borough. I think the last business year they worked against a figure of 230k. As it stands "they" cannot accruately work towards budgetting as they cannot guess how far north the population of the area actually is. Thats not including finding money to cover costs of 'tropical diseases' such as Tb. Theres 12 cases in barnsley confirmed. Thats pushing 200k to sort. Its 3.5k for a child birth providing it just slides out without complications. . . Thats not even covering the money they have to find for previously funded council innitivates eg mental health.
Leaving the EU will undoubtedly have a negative effect on the NHS Reduction in the revenue country can accrue via taxation The open desire fir private health insurance that the out campaign have voiced And the fact that we have ended up with may as pm. All.outcomes of the. Vote
