The end of the NHS?

BREAKING: TORIES VOTE DOWN AMENDMENT TO PROTECT NHS FROM FOREIGN CONTROL IN BREXIT TRADE DEALS -

The Conservative Party have tonight used their 78-seat majority to vote down an amendment designed to protect the NHS and publicly-funded health and care services from being subject to any form of control from outside the UK in a future post-Brexit Trade Deal...

The Rise and Fall of General Practitioners

The 2004 GP contract is a handy hook on which to hang the decline of British General Practice into the calamitous state in which we would now find it, if we could ever get an appointment. The usual accusation is that it made GPs overpaid and underworked and enabled them to spend all day on the golf course, but we should know by now that scapegoats are products of propaganda.
I was senior partner of a large General Practice at the time of the contract, and since it led directly to my taking early retirement four years later, certain aspects stick in my memory. One is that it was Gordon Brown (then Chancellor of the Exchequer and in overall charge of the negotiations) whose erroneous belief that GPs already did spend all day on the golf course led to some of its worst outcomes.
In truth, the rot had set in long before, following the same trajectory that some U.S. front-line Covid doctors have identified over there. A profession of inquisitive minds, gaining expertise from seeing patients and from peer-to-peer discussion, gradually shifted towards a top-down model of centrally planned protocols and ‘best practice’, executed by technical operatives and, increasingly, controlled by Big Pharma and government PR.
I came into General Practice at its possible zenith, when it had ceased to be a bolt-hole for people falling off the hospital consultant ladder, and had become a skilled speciality in its own right. It had inherited the early-NHS model of independent practices contracted to the NHS, which once wedded to high professional standards served to put the doctor-patient relationship centre-stage, rather than the relationship between doctors and their managers.

UK health agency to cut 800 jobs and halt routine ‘Covid’ testing

The flagship public health body set up by Boris Johnson to combat the pandemic is in turmoil, with plans looming to cut jobs by up to 40% and suspend routine Covid testing in hospitals and care homes to save money.
Whitehall sources have told the Guardian that the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), led by Dr Jenny Harries, is in a state of disarray, with morale at rock bottom and concerns it is not funded to cope with any resurgence in the pandemic. Public health experts warned that the “alarming” cuts could cost lives.
More than 800 staff are due to be lost from vital health protection teams across the country in the coming months, a reduction of 40% from the current 2,000 members of staff. One insider said people were being given two weeks’ notice that their contracts were being ended early, and the way it was being dealt with was similar to the “recent situation at P&O”.
Some other teams throughout the organisation have also been told they need to cut full-time equivalent staff by 40%.
After the Treasury slashed its budget to deal with Covid, UKHSA is now proposing to health ministers that it suspend regular asymptomatic testing in hospitals and care homes from May to save money before a potential winter spike in cases.
Sources in the organisation said funding for asymptomatic testing in high risk settings is only enough to cover six months in a year, and senior officials believe it would be better saved for later in the year.

Anyone want the jab? Armed police sent to heart attack patients as crisis-hit NHS buckles under surging demand

Armed police are being sent to save the lives of people in cardiac arrest because ambulances “can’t cope” with demand, The Independent can reveal.
Officers are spending up to a third of their time on non-policing matters, a watchdog has warned, including responding to mental health crises and transporting patients to A&E as ambulance services face a “chronic crisis situation”.
Andy Cooke, HM chief inspector of constabulary, said that firearms officers have been responding to pleas from struggling NHS colleagues to respond to cardiac arrests.
He told The Independent that police are becoming the “first, last and only resort” as NHS services buckle under strain, taking them away from tackling crime at a time when recorded offences are at a record high in England and Wales.
Mr Cooke, the former chief constable of Merseyside Police, added: “Recently, officers in armed response vehicles (ARVs) were being sent to reports of people who were having cardiac arrests because the ambulance service couldn’t cope with the demand, because they’re trained in first aid and to use defibrillators.

If the NHS Desperately Needs More Cash, Why Does it Continue to Waste Millions on Diversitycrats?

According to Tony Blair’s institute, we have three months to save the NHS. It’s so strapped for cash, this Winter is likely to be the most challenging period in its 74-year history. And recent news stories suggest the NHS really is on the brink of collapse – a Cornish pensioner had to wait 15 hours for an ambulance after he broke his pelvis.
But hang on a minute. If the NHS has so little money that it has to be held together with rubber-bands and Copydex, why is it continuing to lavish millions of pounds on equity, diversity and inclusion tsars? After all, it’s not as if the NHS has a problem with diversity. As Fraser Myers pointed out in Spiked, a whopping 30% of NHS medical staff are Asian – compared to just 50% of medical staff who are white.

Exactly as planned: NHS cyberattack causing ‘total chaos’ in hospitals could take a year to recover

It could take more than a year for hospitals to recover patient record systems following the recent NHS cyberattack, The Independent has learned.
Hospitals impacted are likely to need two weeks to recover for every day the situation goes unresolved, according to NHS sources.
Following the 5 August attack on software supplier Advanced, NHS 111 and mental health and community services across the country suffered an outage to several systems used by the NHS including one called Carenotes which is used to store patient records.
It has been 22 days since the outage and Carenotes is yet to be restored. Staff at a Birmingham hospital were told on 17 August that restoration could take a further five weeks.
Under current estimates it is likely to take two weeks for every day, The Independent has been told, to upload patient notes again once Carenotes is back online meaning full recovery could be over a year.
Patients’ safety fears have been raised over mental health and community trust workers being unable to access their records, after Carenotes went down.
The Independent has been told incidents are occurring already where patients have not been given the correct medication dosage because staff are unable to access their records.
One source said: “It’s total chaos… there have been incidents with drugs being given at the wrong dose to people who couldn’t check the dose.

No Hope Service (NHS): Granddad, 94, told operator ‘send the undertaker’ in five hour wait for ambulance (he died)

Kenneth Shadbolt, 94, rang the emergency services after accidentally falling in his Chipping Campden home in the Cotswolds on March 24.
The retired carpenter told the operator at around 3am he suffered a fall in his bathroom and was unable able to get up.
‘Oh, I feel terribly sick. I’m in terrible pain,’ he said, call logs showed, ‘if it’s going on another half an hour I’ll probably be dead.
‘Oh my headache, oh my God. Send me the undertaker, that will be the best bet.’
As the call handler told him an ambulance was coming, Shadbolt’s final words were: ‘Can you please tell them to hurry up or I shall be dead.’
At 8:10am, an ambulance finally arrived and rushed Shadbolt to Gloucestershire  Royal Hospital where he died at 2:20pm from a bleed in the brain.
The harrowing call aired on BBC Radio 4’s File on 4 programme yesterday.
A BBC analysis found ambulances in the UK have spent more than a million hours stuck outside A&Es waiting to offload patients.
Some 300,000 patients have potentially been harmed because of the raft of delays between January and September.

Now They Blame the NHS Backlogs for All the Excess Heart Deaths – And Call Blaming the Fake Vaccines a ‘Conspiracy Theory’. They have no shame or empathy whatsoever – both key traits of psychopaths

After a brief period when post-Covid after-effects were identified as the main culprit for the large rise in excess non-Covid deaths in 2022, that theory now seems to have fallen out of favour. Is that because it dawned on people that if the virus is to blame, then by the same logic vaccine after-effects become implicated as well?
Neither vaccine nor virus has made it into the latest explanations for the rise in heart and stroke deaths. The British Heart Foundation has released analysis laying the blame squarely on the reduced access to healthcare during the pandemic and the consequent backlogs and delays in the system. This is from BBC News:
Quote:Extreme disruption to NHS services has been driving a sharp spike in heart disease deaths since the start of the pandemic, a charity has warned.
The British Heart Foundation (BHF) said ambulance delays, inaccessible care and waits for surgery are linked to 30,000 excess cardiac deaths in England. It has called for a new strategy to reduce “unacceptable” waiting times.
The government has said it is investing another £500m to ease pressure on ambulances and boost hospital capacity.
The BHF said its analysis suggests 395,000 people in England could be on a waiting list for a heart test or procedure by April 2023 based on current trends, up from 224,000 before the start of the Covid pandemic.

No Hope Service NHS flu jab blunder fears: Over-65s may have been given WRONG vaccine

NHS England is investigating a ‘potential serious incident’ after giving the wrong type of flu vaccine to some over 65s.
A ‘small number’ of people who have received an autumn flu jab have mistakenly been given a standard egg culture influenza vaccine (QIVe), which is known to be less effective.
NHSE said everyone affected will be contacted and given an opportunity to get another type of vaccine if they want but assured that ‘there is no clinical risk’ to the QIVe vaccine and that it still provides some protection.
It was unable to confirm the number of people affected as it said some cases where a QIVe jab was recorded were due to reporting errors.
NHSE has so far delivered 15million flu vaccines in total to over 65s and other priority groups.
NHSE’s investigation was laid bare in a letter sent out by NHS England’s South East regional team, titled: In confidence: potential serious incident in the flu programme.
It said: ‘The NHS regional direct commissioning team are investigating reported administration of QIVe flu vaccine to patients aged 65 years or older by a number of primary care providers (primary care and pharmacy) across the region.
‘QIVe is not recommended for use in this age group due to its poor effectiveness.’

Mass killer Whitty to medical staff: ‘Break NHS rules to save lives this winter’. Chris Whitty and ‘save lives’ in the same sentence. Some mistake, surely

The combined effect of backlogs, Covid-19flu and strikes on the NHS is expected to be so great this winter that doctors and nurses have been given official permission to scale back on “established rules to care for people” if necessary to keep the health service going.
In a sobering letter to NHS staff, the UK’s four chief medical officers, the medical director of NHS England, and the head of the General Medical Council say that this year’s winter pressures will be “significant and potentially prolonged” and could be made even worse by staff sickness or other absence.
The letter reassures doctors and nurses that any complaints as a result of departing from these “established procedures” will be seen in the context of “local realities and the need at times to adapt practice at times of significantly increased national pressure”, meaning they may not face disciplinary action from their regulatory body if they make mistakes.
While NHS England said that such letters were sent annually to NHS staff ahead of winter, and at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, NHS chiefs have warned that this year will be particularly difficult for hospitals as they grapple with a likely wave of Covid-19 cases, a rise in admissions due to flu, an already under-pressure A&E service and a threatened nurses strike.
Backlogs caused by the pandemic have been made worse because a crisis in social care beds means that hospitals cannot discharge elderly patients into care homes or the community.
