    To-morrow is perhaps the most important day in the history of the NHS Commissioning Board don’t let it be lost in the public outcry.Focus on what is possible in the current situation,remember all the Communication Leads in Acute Trusts are watching as to how they can continue in their roles!!!!No one should be above the system of accountability.

    I do not believe that the NHS leadership does listen to the patients voice,a lot of what goes on is lip service which is why things continue to be problematic.Who has heard the various concerns I have raised over many years?about (17) on behalf of patients.
    I did have a visit to my home from a senior member of the commissioning board who was very caring but people change roles so often my concerns got lost in the changes.We the patients don’t expect very much,even delays in our care are accepted but you have to draw the line when after these delays you turn up for your appointment to find someone has cancelled it!!!! The NHS is a large organisation
    which for the most part try’s it’s best but often that is not good enough.I have attended some of the Commissioning Board meeting and until the various members are prepared to hear the patient voice the NHS will continue to have Mid Staffordshire situations.
