Mid Central Health
Has anyone else heard the really alarming story that in spite of all the mishaps (some that have taken lives) others really close misses due to shortage of staff; not long ago when Andrew Little visited, made a total mockery of that visit by for the time he was there - moved staff to places he visited so it "looked good"! How stupid could this be?
Badly in need of help; at our expense too often; yet all that is reported on Stuff and in the paper of the mistakes and deaths, yet they go and cover up how truly bad it is?! Has anyone else heard this disgusting but sadly not unbelievable story? How else are those at the top meant to know? I'm sure they become VIP treated if needing help, yet the truth of the real need gets covered over. I am sickened by this thought.
Please can anyone who can coo berate this as fact make a comment?
It came from a reliable source or else I wouldn't post it. If I was one of those staff members I just could not have complied with such a cover-up!

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.3% No, I enjoy it
-
1.7% Other - I'll share below
