mmmmmm-- well I think we are lucky in this country-- considering the enormous demand for its services-- they do the best they can in difficult situations. We have many immigrants working in the hospitals--.
I have always felt we are lucky compared to many other countries. Maybe too many of us take it all for granted.
I actually haven't come across arrogant staff--- usually they are overworked and definitely underpaid.
be thankful you don't have to pay enormous bills-- we pay through our taxes.
I agree about friday and saturday nights with all the binge drinkers causing chaos and depriving other genuine patients of time and care.
The hospital staff have to deal with what comes into the hospital-- they can't pick and choose.
Since so many Care Homes closed-- that puts more strain on the NHS for beds-- elderly people taking up the beds when there is nowhere else to send them.
Maybe a lot depends in which part of the country one lives.
When I had my first baby in Scotland-- she died- the hospital was AIRTHRY CASTLE- Where Stirling University now stands
and I was convinced it was neglect or ignorance on the part of the staff. My second child was born in Stirling royal Infirmary-- thank goodness-- she did survive. But all staff in hospitals are human, a lot depends on their equipment and enough staff. I heard that there are not enough mid- wives nowadays.
