What the petition asks
41years 19 days ago I joined the NHS starting as a student ending as a Matron for 23 years
Our “leader” is clearly intent on the radical reform of OUR service into some sort of clone of the failed system in the USA famed for its ability to enrich service providers.
Our “leader” is clearly intent on the radical reform of OUR service into some sort of clone of the failed system in the USA famed for its ability to enrich service providers.
The USA system bankrupts services users who are from low to middle income groups who are unfortunate enough to become ill.
The American system is writing off the needs of the many. The spectre of a two tier service that provides a service for the few and a second rate uncaring underfunded service for the rest.
Credit card readers in ambulances? Financial checks as you book into A&E? The massive proliferation of debt collecting agencies and insolvency practitioners?
