First off, can I say that I'm not an NHS basher. I am a Registered Nurse and I've had two fantastic deliveries on the NHS but my last delivery was horrendous. Awful to the extent that one of my healthy (7lb7oz) twin boys died during labour.
'The Times' today ran a front page article about failings in maternity/delivery care, and my particular view is that salaries are being withheld for key clinical staff, while funding seems to be limitless for layer upon layer of 9-5 middle managers with seemingly meaningless job titles and duties. I know that I'm not exactly a ray of sunshine on a Sunday evening for starting this thread but I'd be interested to hear your views.
