Care Homes could be forced to open their books to prevent another ``Southern Cross`` The present arrangements
are deemed `not fit for purpose`
Care and Support Minister Norman Lamb said there is significant lack of corporate accountability for the quality of Care
provided in Care Homes and Private Hospitals.
The Horrors of Winterbourne highlighted the need for these reforms.......

I wonder how many now use A&E because they can't get to see a doctor, either an appointment that day or it is out of hours.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

probably a lot jan that is why i have always thought that gp's surgeries should be used more as walk in minor injuries units.
my surgery is excellent had an ecg and blood tests there and my own quack actually does minor surgery one day a week there.

Drug supplier sold after NHS court case......Kent Pharmaceuticals was subject of an eight year investigation by the SFO
operation Holbien examined allegations that companies colluded to fix the price of everyday medicines.
The SFO case collapsed in 2008 in a debacle that cost £ 25 million but Kent pharmaceuticals paid NHS an undisclosed
sum to settle a civil case over anti-competition conduct............Kent`s founder will receive £ 46.4 million from the sale.....

Elderly have been `betrayed` said incoming President of the Faculty of Public Health.
He said there is a `debt of honour` to the elderly people who despite being Bankrupt after the WW11
set up the welfare state.He says all political parties are shying away from funding social care for the
elderly who are now being portrayed as dependents and layabouts....it is an abominable betrayal.

The big lie in the recent headline grabbing effort by Flashman and Thingy was Cameron`s pledge ``I will not change
the NHS one iota``.it was premeditated as Lansley had already written his Health Reform.
The Care Quality Commission latest report of 17 Hospitals with unsafe staffing levels......full report in today's media.......
This report reflects the `toxic` combination of the Health Reform`s cuts and reorganisation..
It is `probably` in the `Risk Register`..................

Adults with disabilities in England are being deprived of basic care and support and are at risk of
being forgotten in the reform of the social care system.
Much of the focus has been on care centered on the crisis facing the elderly but a coalition of
Charities have warned disabled people under 65 are also being neglected under the reforms.
