NHS-THE OTHER SIDE
http://nhs-theotherside.blogspot.com/
This is a blog about the side of the NHS that is seldom seen in the public arena, most of the information is available if you subscribe to the right alerts.
It will contain information of use to patients ( I Hope) as well as rants and rages by myself, trying to explain the sometimes ridiculous ideas that the pointyheads at the Dept of Health come up with.
It may be of interest to Doctors, I hope so, their input would be gratefully received.
I hope you enjoy reading it, you are welcome to leave comments at the end of each post, and I can be contacted at :angusdei
