I have encountered both today while trying to establish exactly why there is a massive service gap in my county for diagnosing the condition my ds is suspected to have.
The NHS trust that should be delivering the service blames the commissioners for squeezing resources and removing part of the necessary diagnostic team, the commissioning authority blame the trust for not delivering the pathway. They are so busy blaming each other they seem to have lost sight of the fact that children are the ones losing out on a diagnosis, necessary for accessing support. No alternative is offered so GPs will presumably continue to refer patients via this defunct diagnostic path.
I was particularly impressed by the trusts complaints team trying to halt my complaint about them, blaming the commissioners. but from the perspective of a parent of a child being refused a service they are commissioned to provide. The reason they cannot (shortage of resource leading to inability to provide a safe diagnosis) is not my problem it's theirs.
The commissioners will have a complaint made against them as well of course then they can go round and round in circles blaming each other until SOMETHING GETS BLOODY DONE ABOUT IT
Any bright ideas? How to put metaphorical rockets up actual bums?
