Sheffield has as many hospital beds per person as similar cities , on two sites with one being near the University, like similar cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean some people in other areas have to go to a totally different town now to be taken to an A&E department, and thats before you look at rural areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the middle of the night we were all begging her to give him some, in fact give him all you have just to stop him moaning about it), who'd been sent over from Calow hospital for treatment. I think the whitch doctor in Chesterfield couldn't identity the problem due to the lack of chicken intestines.

We aren't a city the size of Manchester or London that really needs this and when we already have staff shortages in both hospitals, how do we staff a 3rd hospital. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassett one Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 well i agree ,but we have bed shortages and the tories promised more hospitals and we have nothing this side of the city and although we have huge vacancies and large unemployed we need training and we need to import doctors if need be we have a ageing society from the baby boom years so will need more in the next 10-20 years .

There are these things called "ambulances", and "roads", and "public transport". You make it sounds like you are hours from a hospital, for crying out loud. How do you think the residents of the Scottish outer islands get on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassett one Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 well the nearest for s8 is the northern general not exactly on the doorstep is it? and its not exactly a nice hospital with lots built in the 1900s a dump of a place,we used to have a hospital in the city centre that was fair for everyone.but the tories wont build hospitals as promised so it is what it is.
