Anti NHS bashing

Having been disgusted by the recent NHS bashing thread just wanted to share my wonderful experience tonight!
Parent rushed to hospital this week in serious circumstances and forgot to collect my repeat prescription. Did a 2 minute form through NHS 111 online, now at a pharmacy that's open until midnight and I'll wait a few minutes for my pills and then I can go home to bed.
Thank you NHS.

Which god would that be?

That’s great.

Lots of people are not getting the care they need and deserve and are dying unnecessarily. They’re allowed to share their experiences as you are yours. It’s not “bashing” to do that. Trying to shut down discussion won’t make the issues go away.

Oh, was that the thread about being seen and discharged in 2 hours, but NHS is shit because some nurses were chatting around a computer?

Being seen, diagnosed and discharged in 2 hours does not deserve bashing of the NHS.
