    Comments: I'm sick of seeing how people with self inflicted conditions e.g. Alcoholics, Drug Addicts, Obese and Smokers are given whatever help they need off the NHS and yet the brave people born with CF are having to fight for their lives. It's an absolute disgrace that this is being quibbled over!

    Comments: The deaneries fulilfl a vital function, and breaking up a structure that has just been reorganised seems ludicrous. Local knowledge seems to be what the government want to build, so why destroy the adequate system that holds most of that knowledge? And the oversight and liasion that is required to manage the micro specialties e.g. all the paediatric sub-specialties will also be lost.If work does wholesale go out to the private sector, we as trainees will have to follow it to gain the necessary experience are we really going to parachute into a hospital that has never before supplied any education, and gain the right support? Doubt it. There will be absolutely no educational structure in place in these hospitals, and no interest I should think in providing it. Seeking profit does not allow for expensive staff members taking work time out for education. And I have concerns about the safety of working in multiple sites for only short periods of time our modular training pattern has 3 month blocks.We currently have gaps on most of our rotas. If trainees are going to be allocated to even more hospitals in the region (as they will be required to be if there is to be adequate daytime training opportunity, and for provision of appropriate levels of medical cover) where are these extra trainees going to come from? The system has been trying to match training numbers to job prospects, and migration has been restricted. It\'s not going to be workable. A lot of training happens in anaesthetics out of hours, it is important that we work within our specialty to get exposure to those training opportunities, not trawling the wards doing generic post-operative prescribing and care. Will the boundaries of our out of hours work be respected and maintained in specialty? Will there be surety that the contribution of the new education providers will be of adequate standard for me to gain my CCT? Who from? Particularly in the start up period I imagine that ensuring educational quality assurance from brand new educational sites will be impossible, until several rounds of trainees have passed through the department. If that training is then found to be inadequate, many trainees will have to extend their CCT through no fault of their own. Alternatively of course, the educational burden will remain with the NHS hospitals .

    Comments: Will the proposed remrfos' of the NHS mean that private companies will have to contribute to the cost of training doctors and nurses? Of course not. Yet another way in which this privatisation under the Health and Social Care Bill will be giving advantage and NHS money to private individuals and companies.On a general note, nurses should not have to be graduates. Academic ability does not make a good nurse. Training in basic health care such as feeding, washing, bathing and toileting of patients has been progressively neglected which is why there has been such a huge rise in MRSA and other hospital acquired infections. And which is also why I was not at all surprised at the shocking Health Care Commission findings yesterday that doctors were having to prescribe water so that patients got enough to drink. This is largely due to privatisation of hotel services' within the NHS. When nurses were responsible for feeding patients, it rarely happened. Ward cooks and cleaners were part of the ward team and learned first hand from nurses the importance of hygiene and nutrition. They felt valued as part of the ward team and as a consequence felt more of a responsibility to the patients. Ward cleaning was done under the direction of the ward sister, and cleanliness standards as a result were far higher than they are today. The consequences of privatisation speak for themselves. So called health economists of course have no understanding of this, which is why they always get the outcomes wrong when they are only looking at balance sheets. How much have hospital acquired infections cost the NHS since these privatisations? These likely consequences of course are not factored in when it comes to decisions on privatisation of NHS services.Nurses need to be given back the responsibility for feeding patients and cleaning wards and the privatisation reversed, and basic training needs to reflect this.

    Comments: Yes agree with earlier reply pesisrimon for information gathering needs to be a lot easier why can't patients (and obviously health workers, cleaners, managers, admin staf etc.) fill out surveys and write comments in suggestions boxes for academics, DoH staff, regulation bodies and managers to read through very accomplished people come through the NHS and they might be very sharp with a good eye for what needs to be changed to improve things this kind of patient-power might also lead to a harder working front-line in the basic things like cleaning, turning people in their beds, pain relief and food improvement. Managers can't be everywhere at once if they need to complete lots of forms and respond to legal problems, someone needs to be on the shop floor and why not the people that are already there?Also, a lot of patients suffer unecessarily from poor treatment choices from complacent consultants, and it often comes out that other healthcare workers tried to communicate that there was something the consultant missed but were ignored- if these incidents could be recorded and this information inform service and practice, training and accountability, then we could see some cost-free change!Maybe the notes could even by typed up and a couple of tvs in staff rooms around the hospital displaying comments, complaints, suggestions. This is probably too expensive to do butI'm sure you can think of a cheap way of getting people to think about healthcare improvement and then to communicate that to people that can make the change or think further?
