A lot is emerging at the moment in the
media, in which management are being targeted as being responsible
for poor care in various trusts. This is one such article in, which
the medical consultants are portrayed as victims of a bullish and
ruthless pressure to do extra sessions against their will. Doctors
being subjected to slave labour conditions.
Well I'm sorry but that's not my
recollection. I think what they are talking about here is waiting
list initiative sessions. The article doesn't mention the £500 plus
that surgeons and anaesthetists used to get for these sessions or the
unseemly scramble for these sessions that went on by those doctors
eager to profit.
While it is true that aggressive
management are in no small part to blame let's not forget that many
of our colleagues fully co-operated in a naked quest for self
enrichment and self advancement.
If subjected to close scrutiny, we are
not going to come out of this squeaky clean.
