Hospital being pitted against hospital (e.g. Sidmouthor Seaton to close)
“… the body which runs health services in most of Devon said that it was now looking at proposals to cut 72 beds in community hospitals in the east of the county.”
The four options under consultation are…
A) 32 beds in Tiverton, 24 beds in Seaton and 16 beds in Exmouth.
B) 32 beds in Tiverton, 24 beds in Sidmouth and 16 beds in Exmouth.
C) 32 beds in Tiverton, 24 beds in Seaton and 16 beds in Whipton.
D) 32 beds in Tiverton, 24 in Sidmouth and 16 beds in Whipton.
To repeat: the NHS is NOT overspent, it is underfunded
