I agree with all the sentiments expressed by Danny. The acute services are
at breaking point. Yesturday in Bton we managed by the good providence and
a very good CEO who supported us in all our actions including recalling all
consultants to do emergency ward round at 19:00 hrs to discharge as many
patients as pos. Today it was an easy day which I hope will alow us to
catch up a bit.
The problem is that all elective admissions including surgical waiting list
long waiters had to be cancelled and as a result of this we will be fined.
The whole situation is a joke. I intend raising this at Council of BAEM
this week as I believ we need to have an urgent meeting with someone in the
NHS(E) to have some solutions to this problem.
