We oppose any move by the Capital and Coast District Health Board to tender out the District Nursing Service to a private agency. We need to preserve the District Nurses\' flexible and high quality care in our homes.
I spent the morning reading through the stories people are posting about the nurses and it honestly breaks my heart that anyone would think privatization is a good idea. The board is still not talking to us but I am busy drafting a formal letter to demand some actual answers about the quality of care they expect us to settle for.

My mum relies on these nurses every single week for her dressings. You guys are private for profit and just dont care about the patients like the public nurses do. Keep it local and keep them employed.

Ridiculous idea. They do such a great job already. Stop trying to fix what isnt broken just to save a few bucks.
