UK: Soaring Numbers of Patients Calling Cancer Helplines for Lack of NHS Care
31st December 2019
Cancer helplines are facing a surge in calls from patients because overstretched NHS doctors and nurses do not have time to care for them, a charity has warned.
Macmillan Cancer Support said it had received more than 240,000 inquiries to its support line in 2019, with staff reporting that many patients were left distressed because they felt they could not question the health workers in charge of their care.
How about that GREAT government-provided health care? Don’t you wish we had a system like that in the U.S.?
Bernie and Lieawatha sure do.
