Glad it all turned out ok in the end.
My finacee and I both work within the NHS and were commenting the other night about how you never hear any positive news reports on the NHS, only the stories of missed targets, incompetent staff, and extending waiting lists.

The reality is, the majority of the staff within the NHS are hardworking, highly skilled, caring individuals, that take great pride in their job and the care they provide. The majority of staff go above and beyond what their contracts require of them and on the most part professional to a fault.

Unfortunately, when you work for an organisation who's management infrastructure is under constant change, and is a major pawn in every political game played, it is very hard to create a stable and consistent level of care from once PCT/Trust/County to the next.
