I keep getting people sharing posts about how they (or someone) went to a&e on a Saturday and were treated ergo it is rubbish to say the NHS isn't a 7 day service. Everyone knows the NHS provides many services 7 days a week but that is not what the argument is about. They don't provide all services 7 days a week. For example outpatient appointments are generally 5 days a week as are many non-emergency treatments. If resources could be used more efficiently 7-days a week then I think they should be. I don't think many people disagree with this. The real problem is that there needs to be extra funding to enable this to happen (eg to employ more staff). aibu to be fed up with this straw man and wish people would present the true problem?
