Upset Patient from Hell with implementation in his sights (UK)

Steve Hards

Just last week Dick Vinegar, the Guardian’s ‘Patient from Hell’ laid into the delay in publishing the WSD results. [TA & Guardian original, now with extra comments]. However, today he says “I am so upset that I am returning to the subject again.” And worryingly, “I can’t see where the charismatic champions [for implementation] will come from. Instead, I have a nasty feeling that 3millionlives will come to be regarded by clinicians as just another part of the hated Lansley reforms, and will be rejected by the profession.” Read it and comment (on the original) Who will take responsibility for rolling out ‘telecare’?
