Re: Over stretched NHS
What I hate is the courtesy title Dr.
Folk usually ask what sort of doctor I was.
Mind you, they asked that when I was working.

You are a more useful Dr. in a medical emergency than the other kind!

The title of Captain has always been a problem for me with someone who retired from the army years ago, although sensibly it is now falling out of use.

Back on track: we now have the model for the new Integrated Urgent Care Centre in this area. Yes that's what they've called it!
It will be next door to A&E and will take most appointments via 111 although patients can walk in. There will be a GP on site at all times and nurses to do initial triage and subsequent treatment.
Then a Navigation worker to direct patient to appropriate NHS services for follow up.
Any patients turning up at A&E inappropriately will be sent straight into Urgent Care centre.
Who knows if it will work, but with experience probably not.
This is on top of 7 day access to GPs. No wonder the patients don't know what to do, it's so bloody complicated. To be honest I wouldn't know where to go if I needed treatment out of hours

It's probably easier to phone the undertaker just in case and stay at home and see what happens.
