The Sinking Ship Suffers A Bit Of A Manpower Problem...

A leading surgeon quit an NHS hospital in disgust, claiming that patients routinely suffered due to a lack of resources.
But I bet the hospital administrator's office doesn't suffer a lack of deep-pile carpet and personal coffee machines...
He is one of five surgeons to have quit the hospital in the last year.
And you'd think that would prompt questions in high places, wouldn't you?

Who Is The 'Customer'? Not You, That's For Sure...

A nurse is under investigation after she allegedly gave a child the MMR jab without his mother’s consent.

Practice nurse Rashiela Parekh failed to ask permission before injecting the three-year-old and did not inform his parents that he had been given the jab until it was too late, his mother claims.

Robina Siddique has accused the nurse of giving her son the injection simply to meet Government targets.
Would anyone be surprised if this turned out to be the reason, rather than simple arrogance or incompetence?

Big Government f***s up, yet again (2)

The new contracts for NHS dentists which our very own government introduced* turn out to be a fraudsters' charter.

* Or indeed imposed, depending on your point of view. I know of nothing that suggests NHS dentists were actually lobbying for such changes, above and beyond the usual "Can we have some more money, please?"
