Thank God! The festive period is finally over. Believe it or not! I dread Xmas and New Year every year. Shops don't open when you need them most, public transport not providing frequent enough services, and damn!! hospital came to a standstill with only few (unlucky)doctors working. Yours truly was one of the unlucky ones.
We had a full strength of doctors today. Great! It means things get done, patients are seen and treated. Everybody is happy. I think the biggest winners are undoubtedly the patients.
Put it boldly: I would not wish to be admitted to a hospital during the Xmas/New Year period. How on earth am I going to get the best treatment when there are so few doctors around?? What's the point of spending millions of pounds investing in high-tech medical gadgets, when you can't even finance more doctors to work??
I suspect if the media (tabloids especially) get the wind about the way hospitals were run during this period, they will absolutely have a big field day.
At the end of the day, we are here to serve. Patients' interest should always be the top priority in the operation of any hospital.
Have we all failed our solemn duty to the patients??
