No more white coffins – let’s cure the system

IN recent days we have seen the heartrending pictures of parents of an innocent child carry their hopes and dreams in a white coffin because we are told there is a shortage of nurses working in intensive care for children.

It is difficult not to be moved by such images and then we have seen virtual forests cut down so that politicians can tell us of the wonderful policies they propose for improving our health service.

But there is still no improvement despite all the money thrown at the health system.
