Proposals or panic?

Doctor driven Proposals we are told?

More like doctors ideas on how to plug a gap of poor recruiting, bad management and under funding... Reports that some GP's given 3 days notice for meetings arranged in surgery hours, then told if they could not attend come to the public sessions?

Does this sound like positive engagement or rushed through proposals based on the inability of NHS managers, politicians to recruit enough doctors to copy with the European working hours directive that came in nearly a decade ago.

If this was a privately run business the managers would be sacked for incompetitance or the business would be bankrupt.

Why is the last 10 years have we failed to produce solutions to problems, and the result - the only viable solution te NHS health boards are considering is reducing services, increasing travel times, increasing risk to patients all in the name of progress?

Don't wait for the inevitable, how would you feel if your hospital services were downgraded? Basic services needed by growing populations such as a&e, children's wards (paediatric), premature and poorly baby care (neonatal), consultant led births (obstetric) this is the reality of 1 or 2 communities in the locality of Bridgend, llantrisant and Merthyr tydfil whose hospitals face major change as result of the current engagement proposals.

ACT NOW - SIGN THE PETITION, STOP THE DOWNGRADE!
