P-04-466 Medical Emergency - Preventing the introduction of a poorer Health Service for North Wales
Petition wording:
We
the undersigned call on the National Assembly for Wales to urge the
Welsh Government to ensure that the proposals contained within the
Betsi Cadwalader University Health Board consultation-
“Health Care in North Wales is Changing“ does not
result in poorer health provision and unnecessary deaths and
suffering.
The proposals will have a detrimental effect on most areas of
health provision and emergency services and in no way can the
proposals be an improvement as is intimated. Already experiencing
meltdown, the Health Service in Wales will head towards collapse,
if these proposals are implemented in their present form
The current BCUHB consultation proposals in relation to Health Care
in North Wales appear to be detrimental to general health provision
and the safety of our communities. Accessibility, X-ray provision,
Minor Injuries ,Mental Health, the Ambulance Services, the Out of
Hours service and the ability of GP’s to deliver an
integrated service are going to be particularly hard hit by the
proposals - as they are diametrically at odds with the Welsh
Govt’s vision in relation to the documents “Together
for Health”, “Setting the Direction”, and
“Delivering Emergency Care Services” - it appears also
to be at odds with the “Compact” announced by the
Health Minister on the 25th of September 2012.
