“Catastrophic”, “Burnout” it’s been quite a week for health reports from and now the The Royal College of Surgeons of England and RCN Northern Ireland call it too 👇Ray Nethercott RCGPNI bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northe…
The RCN NI Northern Branch 💙 tells health Cttee that those working on front line must be consulted on change. Rita Devlin says nurses aren’t engaged in discussions around transformation. The The Royal College of Surgeons of England also weren’t consulted by DOH on the blueprint reconfiguration of hospitals.
The The Royal College of Surgeons of England NI tells the Northern Ireland Assembly health committee that patients are dying because they are on hospital waiting lists. Niall McGonigle says when people “wait they deteriorate. “ Also more surgeons here compared to elsewhere are retiring earlier due to stress and burnout.
Health Minister confirms to me that he intends to bring forward his plan for the reconfiguration of hospitals and services in Northern Ireland within the next couple of weeks. No consultation with Health Committee so far Marie-Louise Connolly Aileen Moynagh
