HGI: What's wrong with the NHS? - The Times would like to know

Tuesday, 01, May 2007 12:00

In yesterday's (30 April 2007), times2 contributor Dr Stuttaford asks those at the coalface of the NHS to tell him what's wrong.

The HGI has sent him a book published yesterday by HG Publishing entitled "An idea in practice: using the human givens approach" which offers many reasons but also some inspiring success stories about those trying to effect change using the human givens approach within the NHS and social services.

Ivan Tyrrell writes in the introduction, "Whenever a government departments steps outside its area of responsibility and tries to micromanage people, it causes chaotic effects because so many of its actions are irrelevant to what is needed. This has the effect of reducing great swathes of the population to a state of learned helplessness, unable to get on with real work."

He adds, "This applies to the NHS and in many areas of our society today, where so often you see actions that go against the laws of Nature."
