NHS v privatisation

Posted by caroldimon on November 8, 2013 at 12:05 AM

People need to see the link in  a clear way, lenin Nightingale article who owns care homes? wideshut.

Does not matter who provides care as long as high quality - depends what that is, we know.

Virgin Care own 100plus NHS establishments- still with NHS logo up. So what? Different complaints procedure- harder. More secretive. When did you last read of problems in private hospital? care homes- in local newspapers. So-- govt restrict funding and fine the  NHS hospitals if do not meet unrealsitic targets. Targets not everything, as we know.If fail- become Foundation Trust; so what? Govt not then responsible--- hospital managers control budget . see article Foundatiomn trusts wideshut. All to be Ft anyway from 2014. They fail- govt will sell completely to private company. Hm. If private equity trust- no idea who owns- could be govt via shareholders.If fails- sell back to govt for 1p. Bottom up is does quality really matter to these people?

In otherwords, whilst we fight for NHs only, it is being "sold off" . Who cares about care in the private sector?
