And STV

And The Scotsman https://www.scotsman.com/news/scotland-s-a-e-waiting-times-worst-since-weekly-reports-began-1-4656857

So CLCC are you saying Scotlands A&E is the best performing in the whole of the UK ?

I find it very strange that unionists on here and taking the last week of the year to try and attack the Scottish A&E

Is the weeks with the lowest levels not in the public interest now ?

Anything to poke a stick and Scotlands NHS all because people do NOT like the fact Scotlands NHS has the best record in the UK

And of course who can forget Nuffield Trust saying the English NHS could learn from the Scottish NHS

The BBC use the official Nhs figures.

If you want to compare any health board against another why not us Botswana as your health board figures have to be better than theirs.

I would prefer to look at who is providing my health care and decide my self either I am satisfied or not with the service provided.

Up to now I am happy with the Scottish NHS from the service they have provided for me.

My satisfaction is down to the staff not what ever political party that was in power when I have recieved treament.

Also go read that BBC link and go to the case study so.....

Interesting the case study is of someone who didn't wait at all he we home so he didnt think it was that bad then

People really need to be educated as he shouldnt have gone to A&E as there is a minor injuries unit

Maybe just maybe if people would educate themselves on this it would take the pressure off A&E i mean how hard is it to understand the clue is in the name ( accident and emergency)

Ahhh I have to agree with kinky lol

No matter how much money we spend on the NHS it will never cover all our needs.

People need to start being realistic as to what it can provide and what it should provide.

My friend is a nurse in AMU guy came in with a slightly blocked nose.

Asked what he thought was causing it he said he MIGHT be getting a cold !!!

He had driven past Asda that sells paracetamol and decongestants to waste nursing staffs time !!!!!

Well actually the problem is the name: Accident & Emergency; if I get a splinter in my finger it wouldn't be on purpose, it would be by accident. Maybe they should change the name to just Emergency?

If the figures are correct then whether the Scottish NHS was or is better than the English NHS is surely small comfort. The fact is is that the Scottish NHS appears to be doing worse now than it was previously. The questions to be asked surely are: Is this a temporary blip and, if not, what is the reason for this decline?

The figures that people are quoting are for the last week in the year where you are likely to see an increase with it being the holiday season and people suffering badly with the flu

Strange how they dont seem to wanna out the rest of the weeks where it was sitting at 96% meeting targets of within 4 hours

Where did you see me say that ?

In Dec 2017 weeks before Xmas it was sitting at 96%

Why CLCC are you happy to quote just one week in the year ? What about the rest of the weeks something to hide ?

As I already said, this maybe a temporary blip however the figures are saying that in the latest last week of the year things are worse than in any previous last week of the year. Your reasoning doesn't explain that simple point away.

Holiday season + Aussie Flu

No matter how good the NHS is performing you get a bad case of flu spreading around then it will fuck the system up

You should be challenging Labour and Tories to improve on the NHS and get it to the levels of the Scottish NHS

Not shocked though that unionists will do anything to drag our Scottish NHS down

I hope you are not referring to me !!!!

I am not a unionist.

Hopefully the flu season will end and we can get back to normal.

For A & E I am not a big believer in target's as it all depends on what patients are in the department at the time.

Some patients will need time intensive care so it is not fair on the nhs staff no matter how hard that work missed targets.

Hold the fuck on lol

CLCC you send a link only providing one week and it just so happened to be the last week in the year when its holiday season and a bad case of the flu is going round which is likely to see an increase in people going to A&E

In my opinion it would appear you and others are hiding something why are wont you come out and show the weeks before or even the full year ?

Ok here is the wee bit in the link you sent

"month, BBC analysis of NHS data showed that fewer patients in Scotland were waiting longer than four hours in A&E than they did in 2012/3 in contrast to England where the number had more than doubled.

It found England had a 155% rise in long waits between 2012/3 and this year, up to 2.5 million a year.

Hospitals in Wales and Northern Ireland also saw an increase over the period.

In Scotland, the number of patients waiting more than four hours fell by 9% to just over 100,000"

Now I can read you like a book CLCC I know your reply is gonna be something like but but but it doesn't actually say "best performing"

So read between the lines if you can

Now can you now answer it do you think Scotland has the best performing AA&E in the UK ?

The waiting times for Scotland in 2017 were better than they were in 2012/13, but you haven't given any data to compar it to 2014, 2015, 2016, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 etc. So where is the data? Where is the data backing up your 96% claim? You haven't provided any.

I'm calling bullshit on the claim that 96% of patients in Scotland were seen in less than 4 hours. No proof has been offered for this, and people should know better than that in this forum. If you are going to throw statistics around, you have to be able to back them up.

But no no you quote one week the last week in the year where it's holiday season and the flu is spreading around more than likely you will get an increase

"Ps fact for you all

Scotlands A&E is the best performing in the whole of the UK

I would think people south of the border would be more worried about the English NHS right now and the real crisis

If the figures are correct then whether the Scottish NHS was or is better than the English NHS is surely small comfort. The fact is is that the Scottish NHS appears to be doing worse now than it was previously. The questions to be asked surely are: Is this a temporary blip and, if not, what is the reason for this decline?

The figures that people are quoting are for the last week in the year where you are likely to see an increase with it being the holiday season and people suffering badly with the flu

Strange how they dont seem to wanna out the rest of the weeks where it was sitting at 96% meeting targets of within 4 hours

As I already said, this maybe a temporary blip however the figures are saying that in the latest last week of the year things are worse than in any previous last week of the year. Your reasoning doesn't explain that simple point away.

Holiday season + Aussie Flu

As you will see there is one unionist on here thats get it and i agree with him

No matter how good the NHS is performing you get a bad case of flu spreading around then it will fuck the system up "

I'll grant you that the flu this year may be a contributing factor however I'd have thought that the fact that the previous year's last week also included New Year's Eve whereas the just gone years New Year's eve actually fell in the first week of this year for the same statistics would more than compensate.

What you constantly fail to grasp is that it is totally irrelevant as to whether the NHS is better in Scotland than in England. What is relevant is whether the NHS is better or worse in Scotland now than it was previously. It would be true to say that, in period from 2012 to 2017, overall waiting times in A&E in Scotland have fallen, however it's also true to say that comparing the end of year figures for 2017 with 2016 they are worse. They were also worse for 2016 compared with 2015. Considering that there was no flu at the end of 2016 and, with New Year's eve not falling in the last week of 2017 (which should of lead to lower waiting times) I'm not convinced that the current flu outbreak fully explains the increase.

The other thing you seem unable to grasp is that quite a lot of people from outside Scotland spend time in Scotland and have a perfectly legitimate reason to be concerned if the Scottish NHS appears to be performing less well than previously whether it's better or worse than in England or not.

I'm not comfortable with political point scoring based on people's misery. There is an almost gleeful delight and assumption that it is due to failing policies and associated failure of the NHS. In truth, it's nothing of the sort. Not to say there are not problems but that's a long term view.

Reading more about it, Australia flu hit the Scottish central belt heavily and coupled with freezing weather conditions, resulted in more attendances at A&E. No doubt, flu and the weather affected NHS staff, too.

Since figures began, monthly targets which include minor trauma units etc and a and e, have been mostly in the middle to upper 90%. Last time I was in Scotland, there was a huge leading story on the national news about falling A&E targets in the UK. However, it was actually about England and Wales' results and only the briefest of brief comment was made to say that actually, Scotland's were the nearest target in the UK.

It's nice to think you wouldn't have long to wait in A&E if you were ill but as a measure of health care, when the said departments are full of people who should have been at their own doctors in the morning, or days before, is it a surprise it's overwhelmed when an epidemic hits? Should that be politicised?

Tbh I look at the facts not the anecdotal evidence. I think whole “people’s story” is a load of tosh. Every media source has an angle. The stats were there for this one and I would imagine that if five stories submitted four were okay experiences. This story was about delays so they chose that one. Your angle is bbc bias so you’ve highlighted a story which fits your agenda.

And before you mention it, I think the 100000 number was poor journalism. Not lies but an error. The rest of the tv story showed sources so was traceable.

What’s your line of argument here ?

At worst it was poor journalism possibly due to the chaos of the situation.

To bring out a story from 17 years ago which has no suggestion of an intention to miss lead adds very little credibility to an argument of bbc bias or an agenda ?

Indeed the absence of evidence is reassuring.

Yes. Because one it was ridiculously too high. Two they provided sources. Three it serves no real ends in a two minute news clip. Four I’m not even sure what the agenda is if there was one. Five I think an apology for an incidental mistake is unoroportional. And would probably be followed up by accusations of them doing it just to replay the story.

I would post a link, but forum rules dont allow it.

I would be surprised that its gone from 1,650,000 per year in 2012/13 to only 100,000 in 2016/17"

100k is those over 4 hours so in line with a 90 odd % success rate.

How about common sense ?

I know if i twisted my ankle i am not gonna go to accident and emergency when i can go to the minor injuries unit

Common sense people , common sense use it and use well dont be like that fanny in that BBC link lol "

Its a stupid system... how so i know if its a sprain (minor injuries) or break (a&e) until a professional has checked it?

Ive been to out of hours before with what i thought was a cracked rib ... they sent me to a&e for suspected clot on my lung ... turned out to be just a really bad chest infection which again could have been minor injuries .... we dont know which we have until its been checked

Remember now you have to be seen, assessed, and then either treated, admitted or sent home

For the whole of 2017 patients seen with in four hours or less: 93.1%

Not fucking bad eh even though unionists will claim thats a fucking crisis no no what is a crisis is when the Red Cross have to step in

I also think this is a silly target based system ... ive been sat there waiting on blood results at around 3hr 45 and can hear them on the other side of the curtain debating admitting me to a ward because they need me off their list before 4 hours ... when actually a half hour more and i could be out the door ... think of the wasted time and money and bed getting me admitted just to tick a box on a target list

Its just putting the staff under another list of pressures when they already know best how to manage the beds they have available and what is right for their patients

"What’s your line of argument here ?

At worst it was poor journalism possibly due to the chaos of the situation.

To bring out a story from 17 years ago which has no suggestion of an intention to miss lead adds very little credibility to an argument of bbc bias or an agenda ?

Indeed the absence of evidence is reassuring. "

I think maybe you will have had to hear Miss Smith's comments through the years to determine that her political views colour her reporting quite significantly. It does her no credit whatsoever.

I think the targets are useful, and people should be seen within a reasonable time, however if the targets are being missed, it probably indicates that enough resources aren't being allocated to meet demand. Germany is a comparable country to the UK in terms of demographics, income levels and expectation of medical outcomes. However, they spend twice as much on health as a percentage of GDP than we do in the UK.

Yes targets are useful but at times like this with flu outbreaks ect affecting thousands more than usual it is only to be expected that ppl will have to wait a bit longer

Accusations ? Fuck me lol so telling people 100,000 people went to A&E last week when infact it was for the full year is now acceptable ?

That is misleading people no shame eh on misleading people ? As long as it paints a bad picture on Scotlands NHS is fine i call that sick !!!

"

Why are you claiming that only 100,000 people went to A & E last year? NHS Scotland say that 1,650,000 went in 2012/13. That would be quite a drop.

At least your accepting that the figures are worse for 2017 than 2016 and giving reasonable reasons as to why that might be so unlike KinkyH who only seems to say that it's a BBC plot to discredit the SNP and that, as long as the Scottish NHS is better than the English NHS it doesn't really matter if its getting better or worse than it was previously.

However your reasons for this increase in waiting times doesn't explain away the increase in waiting times from 2015 to 2016 when there was no flu outbreak. Also New Years Eve/Day is not included in the 2017 figure but was in the 2016, this should have lead to a reduction in numbers that I would have expected to counteract a lot of the effect of the flu outbreak.

Maybe instead of fighting over figures, someone with some actual knowledge and insight into the situation could suggest WHY EXACTLY the figures are increasing year by year. The suggestion here is that the Scottish government is failing the people- IS it about money/funding?

The Scottish NHS will inherently cost more to run than the others- distances, demographics, smaller hospitals, primary care units and gp practices and A&E services have been centralised I believe. That English hospitals are performing worse is interesting in the political arena but not helpful in progressing the discussion.

That's why Scotland gets more than £10,000 per year per person to provide such services than those in England under the Barnett Formula. However whenever this is mentioned kinky goes crazy and starts accusing people of calling Scotland subsidy junkies, even though they are the only person who I have ever seen use that phrase on here.

Perhaps peoples cages would be more rattled if you actually just gave the figures. However I still don't see how the performance of the NHS in England, whether better or worse than Scotland, in any helps explain away the increase in waiting times in Scotland for the last week of the year for the last two years.

And why do you consider pointing this out to be bad mouthing Scotland's A&E? If I was only interested in bad mouthing Scotland's A&E I wouldn't have pointed out in an earlier post that overall waiting times for A&E in Scotland have actually decreased between the period 2012 to 2016.0

people need to be better educated on what A&E stands for and if you have a minor injury there is a minor injuries dept where they can be treated and less pressure on the A&E dept

People seem to think if your ill go to A&E its common sense if you twist your ankle instead of going to A&E go to the minjor injures

Last time i went to A&E it was Sat night and i was seen and treated within a hour and sent home within 2hours

And i notice two women come in one with twisted ankle because she was pished now if she had been better educated on going to right dept for her injury then it would take alot of pressure of the nurses and doctors in A&E

Turns out 'Broken Ankle Man' story. The BBC said He first attended A&E on Boxing Day. Browne himself said he hurt his ankle on Christmas Eve. He waited *two days* before going to A&E with a suspected broken ankle? Nobody's picked up on this bit strange if it was that bad we did he wait ?

Nothing strange in waiting.

I had a broken bone in my foot , I think I did it playing football as a teenager I only found out I had broken it when I was in for an x-Ray as an adult and the doctor asked me when I broke my foot as there was nothing in my notes or history about it.

My mate broke two fingers and only asked the doc about it when he was there to ask for a hearing test.

Broken my little finger twice playing volleyball. First time went to walk in clinic. They said it would be permanently deformed as I broke it right on the knuckle. They were right...it was deformed for about a year...until I broke it again.

This time I just wrenched it straight, taped it up for three weeks...it’s as good as new now!

"Seems fair. It is decreasing though, is it not, being in proportion the the amount spent on NHS England. Hence the concern about privatisation in England.

However, it's not helpful as an answer to my question. Is their anyone with constructive answers?"

Spending on the NHS is going up in England, hence the knock on effect of rises in Scotland. Also, privatisation (and we have that in Scotland too) doesn't affect the funding as it is still part of the NHS budget.

As for your earlier question about NHS performance it is mainly down to two things, an ageing population and a lack of funding. To quote the chair of the BMA in Scotland on the subject:

"We need a long term, sustainable plan that closes the growing gap between resources – in particular finances - and the demand for services"

"The BMA believe that multiple targets, an ageing population and the funding gap are creating a vicious circle, stretching the system and the workforce beyond their means"

"That is why there must be action. First and foremost, we need an NHS that is effectively funded to deliver what we ask of it. We need less focus on targets, which can increase pressure on hard pressed teams and a better use of data to measure the overall effectiveness of care. And there must be more and better coordinated action to tackle the growing number of vacancies we see across our workforce. If we don’t take this kind of action, we risk not only another hugely challenging winter period next year, but an NHS simply unable to cope with huge demands being placed on it"

You don't know how nations work. If all the money raised in England stayed in England, then how would we pay for defence or DfID, or foreign policy? Should we also have all the money raised in Cambridgeshire, stays in Cambridgeshire? How would we pay for national infrastructure, or the NHS, or any national policy without paying a national body to co-ordinate it? Should Cambridgeshire create it's own welfare system?

But why should my town pay for some other town on the other side of the county? Nah, whats raised in this town, stays in this town. But why should this street subsidise that street over there. No thank you. What's raised in this street, stays in this street. Hang on, why is my house subsiding that house over there? No, I'm keeping my money....

See the fault in your logic? (PS, I don't expect you to answer any of those questions, they were rhetorical.)

"The nationalists do love a witch hunt; companies, individuals, no one is safe from crazy accusations from the cyber nats.

So does that make you a cyber yoon then

I haven't villified any companies or individuals. How big is the cyber nat boycott list now? Are there any companies not on it?

Oh did i hit a nerve there im a nationalist and have not abused any companies or individuals but you still class me as a cybernat just because i support independence seems the cyberyoons like to give it out but cant take it back

Evidence?"

How humiliated was the blessed Nicola today trying to defend the indefensible she looked and sounded so desperate... No one to blame her only defence was "Sorry"...Now sorry is what you say when you bump into someone in the street... Not when an 80yr old man waits 3 hrs for an ambulance then 13hrs on a trolley before being attended to...Better than the rest of the UK...is that what the doctor told that old man ?....Pathetic minister Robinson has to walk she has no other option....The shame she brings to her office should be enough, But then again she is Nicolas friend so she will sail on as the old and needy are left to fend for themselves Shame on anyone trying to defend this record....Any smart ass replies should go Tom Wilson who was the man who endured this debacle .

No no answer my question

I know you dont like it but i wanna hear a unionist say it

What does that BBC link say in its headline ? Whats your views on it ?

I am afraid what we see here is unionists not want to own up and tell everyone that Scottish A&E is far better run in the whole of the UK and even when there is pressure on the Scottish NHS still they manage to outperform the rest of the UK

This is what happens when unionists go tellling lies and bad mouthing Scottish NHS you get found out and exposed

Any wee dirty trick to get your SNP bad shite is be ashame of yourselves for putting our doctors and nurses down like that

But Corbyn blames the SNP in Scotland yet its the Tories that set funding for Scotland

So let me get this right Labour government in Wales blame the Tories for cuts

But here in Scotland Labour blame the SNP for cuts

Yup thats right Labour are taking you for right mugs

In a nut shell it says that, whilst the figures for Scotland are still a little better than for England, the figures in England were only slightly worse than last year but the figures for Scotland were a lot worse than last year.

Or, put another way, whilst the Scottish NHS is still performing better than the English NHS it's actually get worse quicker.

I really don't understand why, for you, the most important thing seems to be whether the Scottish NHS is doing better than the English NHS.

You must be mad a unionist would never tell you who they think would do better cause they know no one could

The best answer you will get is anyone can do better feart to actually name just one because they know the unionists branch offices are piss poor

So you wont get an answer therefore they know deep down the SNP are doing a good job and people trust the SNP

Why because i am sick fed up of people bad mouthing our Scottish NHS when you can clearing damn well the Scottish NHS is the best performing in the whole of the UK

Yes both Scottish and English NHS is under pressure right now with people with the flu that has to be took into account and those nurses and doctors should be fucking praised for the work they do instalead of putting them down its sick

Now it clearly shows even under pressure the Scottish NHS is still outperforming the rest of UK

I hope England and Wales catch up and improve but with the Tories and Labour in charge of England and Wales i very much doubt it

So instead of bad mouthing our Scottish NHS get into the Tories and Labour and get them to improve to the English and Welsh NHS thats where people should be worried about when people are dying in trollys

Now i know the Scottish NHS is far from perfect but fact remains its in far best shap then down south and you all know it there is always room for improvment and people in Scotland trust the SNP withe the Scottish NHS you may not like it but the people have spoken respect it

No one on this thread has at any time even suggested that the problems in the NHS anywhere in the UK is the fault of the doctors or nurses, neither has anyone said anything that could in anyway be considered as putting them down. Neither is pointing out a potentially increasing problem with waiting lists in the Scottish NHS and wondering what might be the cause bad mouthing it. Are you trying to say that no one should be aloud to criticise the health services in Scotland?

The UK government. Who the fuck do you think raises taxes and spends them?????

Go and look up Barnett Formula and tell us all what it say. You can use google, a text book, a political dictionary, ask most adults in the UK. They will be able to fill you in. I hope your sense of self won't be too crushed by what you discover.
