One of the local GPs got caught out marking people down as "no answer" when they tried phoning. Only because they let the phone ring for less than 5 seconds before hanging up and moving onto the next caller.
And then they wonder why the local A&E is busy
I suspect this is exactly the reason why A&E is reportedly busy.
The issue of GP access has been a salient one for months, yet I’ve barely heard anyone within the NHS come out with anything serious in an attempt to address it.
One can’t help but get the feeling this is another case of Covid being used as an excuse to push ahead with other agendas. Certainly at my surgery GP access has been going downhill for some years now.
