Readers support Bucks Free Press hospital call
 |
| Listen to us: your chance to write to Gordon Brown |
FORMS supporting a BFP call for prime minister Gordon Brown to order a review of changes at Wycombe Hospital have already started to come in.
Although the print edition of the Bucks Free Press is not available until tomorrow concerned residents have already filled out our online form.
We argue the changes at the hospital - particularly birthing services, which are massively delayed - must be looked at again.
And we promise to deliver the forms calling for a review to 10 Downing Street.
Read the story and complete the form by clicking on the links below.

It is not common sense that a big and growing town like ours with a major motor way passsing through it dont have an a&e,health workers advocate the importance of immediate intervention-the golden hour,i wonder at all this talk about centralized services by management personnel,ask any doctor working at wycombe or any other hospital for that matter,this town needs and deserves an a&e,if the changes are not reversed it will be a tragedy that could have been prevented,it is still not late,we want our a&e back Mr Prime Minister,this whole town will remember you forever and thank you for it if you could reinstate the entire services at this hospital,thank you.

Well said, but I doubt he'll listen.

Well done GAVIN you have very nearly said it all.
Steve Cohen from his editors chair, has given everyone the final [bold]wake up call[bold]bold[/bold] Read it and digest then get behind the Marlow Peoples Action Group to stop the rot and get back the A&E to full status, we need to raise a few thousand pounds to get a report done on the flawed "CONSULTATION" document put out by the Hospital and PC Trusts. Then we can go forward and achieve what WE WANT not what these un elected and un accountable manderins want to impose on us.
COME ON LETS SHOW THEM WHAT BUCKS PEOPLE CAN DO.[/bold]

Today a neighbour had an accident, I agreed to take her to Wycombe Hospital, on seeing the injury I thought it too bad for conveyance in a private car, a call was made for an ambulance, the reply was it should be with you within one hour, fortunately it arrived after about 15 minutes, unfortunately my neighbour would be transported to Stoke Mandeville, she does not own a car, how will she get home after treatment we asked, the reply she will have to make her own way by Taxi or public transport, the Paramedics said if I took her she would be seen at Wycombe General Hospital, I drove my neighbour to Wycombe General Hospital where she was treated (to clarify, there was massive initial swelling which triggered the concern to call an ambulance, this had reduced quite a bit by the time the ambulance arrived but was still nasty).
Could it be illegal for the government to continue taking money for health care from peoples salaries if the services supplied are becoming increasingly inferior?
It is an INSULT that our Country's LEADER and his Parliamentary colleagues continue to get the best hospital care possible for themselves and their families whereas the electorate are treated very shabbily.
