>From the Cambridgeshire Fens---We are very happy that this new
organisation is up and running, and that so many people are committed to their own community hospitals. I must say that when I and Reg Wenn visited Westminster on Tuesday we found it not to be a wheelchair friendly place, which is ironic considering all the wheelchair-friendly legislation pouring from it's portals.
This morning we have learnt that our PCT is closing yet more Mental Health beds to save a bit of money. However the PCT's Director of Childrens Service, Director of Commissioning and Modernisation, Information Governance Manager, Teenage Pregnancy Coordinator (interesting job title) Healthy Lifestyles Coordinator, Healthy Lifestyes Administrator, Health Development Specialist etc etc. etc. still all enjoy good salaries, splendid pension scheme and are obviously far more important that mentaly ill patients.
