Polls that should be chucked out!

MORE CRAP!

I know, I know, My Black Cat, we’re supposed to be putting our feet up this week.

But read this:

“Although most patients were unsure what polyclinics were, just under half (47 per cent) believed that they would make it easier to get appointments. The same proportion (45 per cent) said that they would improve healthcare.

This is part of the result of a poll carried out for “The Times” by Medix-Ciao.

THE POLYCLINIC DIMENSION

Now, My Black Cat, if most patients are not sure what polyclinics are, this invalidates this part of the study.

Has Medix-Ciao not grasped this?

Has The Times not grasped this?

If not, why not.

Why are they reporting on something that should have been chucked out?

Furthermore, My Black Cat, as we said before, this fight should not be fought on the GP opening hours smokescreen.

And, My Black Cat, patients should be informed about the economical dimension behind the polyclinics.

Patients, not clients.

The clients have much to say about the accessibility of GPs.

The clients have much to say about the convenience and ambience of polyclinics.

What the hell do clients know about illness?

Keep the clients out of this conversation.

THE NESTS BEING FEATHERED WILL NOT CONTAIN DOVES

Let the patients, the real patients speak, and then let them decide which great lumps of the NHS should be privatised in order to feather the nests of the global healthcare predators.

Then, with a bit of luck, the moaning clients will have to fork out and pay for the patients out their own pockets.

The problem is though, My Black Cat, it takes a doctor to decide the difference between a client and a patient.

And even then it can be difficult.

Maybe that’s why Liam Donaldson keeps saying we need more doctors!

Right, My Black Cat, lets go and put our feet up now for about a week and not emerge again unless we get really, really ratty about something else!
