Report: England’s Socialized Health Care ‘Failing the Elderly’

(Breitbart.tv) - A series of "harrowing" complaints against the NHS has exposed how older people are being neglected.

Sky News: One woman described how her aunt, named only as Mrs H, had been taken on a long journey to a care home in Tyneside by ambulance after a stay at the elderly care assessment unit at Birmingham Heartlands Hospital. She arrived at the care home "strapped to a stretcher", soaked with urine, dressed in clothing that did not belong to her held up by paper clips, and accompanied by bags of dirty laundry, much of which was not her own.

In another case, staff at Oxford Radcliffe Hospitals NHS Trust switched off the life support for a patient named as Mr C despite his family's request that they delay doing so for a short time.
