This blog is here to discuss primarily why the people who are supposed to care for us in the NHS have been able to abdicate that responsibility in deference to the patient's well-being. The role of unions like Unison, Unite and others must be significant in allowing their membership to feel they have the right to ignore patients needs even to the point of causing their death. The media is reticent to point the finger of blame too squarely at this segment of the NHS workforce. An imbalance has occurred in the reporting of the problems of the NHS and it must be addressed if we, the tax payer and patient, are to get the service we deserve.
