Retired Doctor Warns of Crisis at Northern Care Alliance | Manchester News

Published 20 hours ago
Description

A retired doctor with 30 years at Northern Care Alliance hospitals has blasted patient safety as “utterly unsafe” and “toxic,” warning of avoidable deaths and severe harm tied to staff shortages, diagnostic errors, and leadership disconnect. He accuses the board of ignoring frontline realities, including hiring unregistered consultants — a legal breach — and calls for a complete overhaul, demanding a new board that listens to staff. With 28 deaths and 56 serious incidents linked to delays last year alone, the trust admits challenges but vows to improve by boosting clinician leadership and collaborating with government to restore public trust.
