Emergency Call Out
Accident and
Emergency is crammed
While
ambulances queue in the car park,
A triage
nurse frets, trying to make work
This seized
up system, regularly damned
By
comfortable commentators who
Cite bed
blocking elderly for lying
In hospital
beds rather than dying.
Others claim
they’d have more funds flowing through
To pay for
enhanced social care, and yet
Every penny
paid towards such cost
Is a unit of
capital’s profit lost.
So stringent
limits will always be set
Whichever
party does the fashioning:
Whatever the
need there’ll be rationing.
D. A.
