Is this the type of public health system we want? It's time for a change.
Hi Everyone, Kia ora koutou,
Last week my partner's mum broke her hip and needed hospital care. Due to her age and health the doctors decided not to operate but to let nature do her thing. On Tuesday, after a pain-filled day on Monday wherein my partner and I had to go into the hospital twice to make sure she was getting appropriate medication, she was discharged to her rest home with no care plan. The hospital notified us and Selwyn Oaks, her rest home, after she was discharged and on her way in the ambulance!!!! I'm totally astounded.
I'm sure that many of you out there have had a similar experience so please PLEASE do we really want a continuation of this mediocre quality service that has been rife under the present government? Our elderly, especially, do not deserve to be treated in this way. They have paid their taxes for years and years.
We would like to sincerely thank everyone at Selwyn Oaks for the way in which the situation was handled and the care that our mum has received on her return.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
31.9% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
68.1% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
