The hospital grinds to a halt. They've even started sending long term patients home, off the wards at weekends, and have them return on Monday. Explain why clinics are not held at the weekends. People are dying while on long long waiting lists. I can appreciate that staffing levels are inadequate for 24/7 but that can and should be remedied. Hospitals are an essential service. Plenty of people have said you are wrong , yet you don’t answer them. Why ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how many consultants there are in an hospital, if they weren't there, would people walking through notice? I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am at a complete loss on how to reply to this. There does not seem to be any understanding of what happens in hospitals. The overriding questions should be about: Training, retention, pay and staffing levels. Money-funding, investment efficiency and infra-structure . Patient expectation. Role of the private structure. Who allocates expenditure. and probably a lot more Governments and their health authorities do need to be challenged an held to account more rigorously.

Visit your local hospital on a Saturday or Sunday and see for yourself. Plenty of people have commented on this other than me in newspaper articles, magazines etc. 2 hours ago, Annie Bynnol said: I am at a complete loss on how to reply to this.
