    The NHS is simply cr@p with waste, inefficient and bad management rife. On my last contract I saw at first hand the shambolic way they record (or don't) their data. Basically if they were to offer half decent rates then maybe they wouldn't have the effing clowns which they currenly have. I had an agent on today who said 'well it's the NHS you see' as if that was in some way supposed to make me more keen to accept the bolloxs rate on offer.

    On my last contract we had trusts who had spent millions but couldn't tell us what they got fo their cash.

    Plenty of budget for ethnically diverse paraplegics with sexual dysfunction problems.

    All helps towards a "fairer" more inclusive society.

    Last autumn I needed a podiatrist - essentially to tailor-make shoe inserts for flat feet. I was told the budget for podiatrists had already dried up and the departments had all closed in Luton and Stoke Mandeville.

    My doctor, being a pushy welshman, somehow got me referred me to prosthetics instead, and they did it.

    Another NHS moan

    My youngest daughter has been reffered to a consultant at the local hospital by our GP.

    Yesterday I found out that funding for the paediatrician(?sp) has been stopped, apparently they have reached their budget for the year.

    WTF 2 months in and all the money is gone

    thanks el D
