They don't even, when you don't pay, like the NHS.
In the UK, here's a couple of true stories (over the last few months). Man goes into hospital routinely for 2 days. While he is there, a nurse drops & then steps on his spectacles, by accident.
Another. A lady goes to Hospital for an Iron Infusion & an argument breaks out between the Nurses, on who is going to carry it out. Then (on starting procedure) they fail to take the patients Blood Pressure or Heart.
Another series of true events. Lady has ulcer on leg. Everytime district nurses visit to change dressings, it's always a different nurse...So, on arrival the patient & carer, have to waste time explaining their situation. Can't the send the same particular nurse to see the patient, every time? It's not rocket science. And this one made me laugh: A nurse (who hasn't visited before) suggests the ulcer is healing well...How does she know? She hasn't even seen it before! Rather like visiting your GP Surgery regularly & always seeing a different doctor. No consistency. Health Service? What Health Service? It's wasting time & money & just paying fatcat bureaucrats.
