"Poor organization at Radiotherapy"

Broken would be a good description of this service. In the waiting room, which is dowdy with poor lighting , large areas of paint missing from a skirting board and rather grubby arm chairs, there is a notice that says TV broken. It has been like this for a week !

On the notice board a scrawled message said 1hr delay due to broken machine.!

Last week it was 2hrs

My friend's times have been altered with no reason given and appointments do not run to time. There are often long delays.

Why?

Too many patients?

Not enough machines?

Machines too old or not serviced?

Too few radiographers?

Poor organisation and management?

Or all of the above.

Whatever it is it needs sorting out.

I feel so sorry for the hardworking and dedicated radiographers who have to work under these conditions. They are lovely and deserve less stress as do the cancer patients.
