a man who died when his ear infection was missed during telephone consultations with his gp surgery should have been seen face to face according to a ruling by nhs england. an investigation by the bbc�*s newsnight programme found that david nash, who was 26, had four calls over three weeks during covid restrictions but was never offered an in—person appointment. david grossman has this report. i'm worried about what it could be. i'm worried it could be cancer. david nash didn't have cancer. the 26—year—old musician and law student had a middle—ear infection, but was otherwise fit and healthy. it's a condition that's normally very easily treated. as his symptoms worsened, he had four telephone consultations with four different clinicians at his gp practice over 20 days in the autumn of 2020. each failed to diagnose his condition. his parents believe that not being able to see a doctor face—to—face was a significant
i'm in south london, trip that i have done it just seemed to flow, after you said "the studio". do you remember a couple briefings from government figures saying, "we are going "to do two weeks of and we all went, "we'll see..." actually, they kind of have! they really kind of have. yeah. i mean, i'll do the short the long version. so let me just give you the if that's all right, chris, if that works for you, a quick wham—bam? day one of this three days of government was this package of energy support for business, because you know businesses were feeling like, whoa, help with their energy bills, what's happening to us? so we heard that. day two was a big health announcement. so government priorities to tackle things like backlogs in the nhs, the time it takes you to get a gp surgery. day three, and that's friday — the one we are still awaiting — that's the biggie. it is the non—budget, mini—budget, fiscal event — call it what you want — but what it's going to be
fairenough. ——actually, they kind of have! they really kind of have. yeah. i mean, i'll do the short version and then chris can do the long version. so let me just give you the wham—bam of what's happened. if that's all right, chris, if that works for you, a quick wham—bam? day one of this three days of government was this package of energy support for business, because you know businesses were feeling like, whoa, loads of households are getting help with their energy bills, what's happening to us? so we heard that. day two was a big health announcement. so government priorities to tackle things like backlogs in the nhs, the time it takes you to get a gp surgery. day three, and that's friday, the one we are still awaiting, that's the biggie. it is the non—budget, mini—budget, fiscal event — call it what you want. but what it's going to be is big changes to tax, big changes to spending. the government claims it is going to grow the economy and lots of people are saying, let's see... that was pretty comprehensive, i think.
gp as well. my nurse practitioner, i go through some of her patience with her but they are difficult to find because of that skill level and matthew made the really good point that when a lot of patients go into hospital, the social care is not available and that's why allied health care professionals, notjust nurse practitioners we are looking for, it is district nurses who are able to do bandages for the patient who has come out with an ulcer and if they can't get an appointment with a district nurse and it goes into the gp surgery, and it is looking after complex, family cases and child—abuse cases, so we need to support those children that are coming out of hospital as well and then there is dementia care, which is on the rise. where do we find carers in the community? we are getting carer burn—out because of the lockdown having an impact on them then mental well—being, rises in mental health cases being higher, so patients are becoming suicidal so it's more of the fact of where we
on stretched budgets. even here, the next phase of this scheme could cost tens of thousands more than planned. so, we are in a very strong position when it comes to financial resilience, but other communities and other councils, particularly in poorer areas, do not have that financial resilience, and they will find it impossible to meet the shortfall due to rising costs and rising inflation. so those projects might not happen for some places? i fear that they may not happen, and that is unfair. just down the road, the same council has plans for the former mining town of eastwood. it's bid for £20 million of government funding for a new gp surgery, swimming pool and library, but already knows the price could climb. this is the kind of overlooked place the government's promised attention. they are going to improve everything, and you never see anything better. nothing ever happens. a community to come to, you know, rather than just the same food - shops, charity shops, - hairdressers' and nail bars. part of what the government calls levelling up — this idea of improving opportunity
