英國醫療人球事件？台灣媒體如是說；說醫院踢人球、醫院當人球
整理一下事情經過，大致如下：
- 這位13歲小弟Robbie Appleby-Socket；禮拜三下午在學校玩耍時候，不小心把鉛筆插到手背。
The pencil became stuck in the 13-year-old's hand during a playfight at his school in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, on Wednesday afternoon last week. - 這位小弟被送到Doncaster Royal Infirmary醫院的急診室(Accident and Emergency Department)，醫師會診了骨科醫師。Robbie was seen by the A&E team, who were concerned and asked an orthopaedic surgeon to assess him.
- 醫院預計隔天禮拜四早上幫這位小弟手術，同時開了些止痛藥，告訴他說可以回家休息，同時半夜之後開始禁食。“Robbie was listed for surgery the next morning and sent home with painkillers to rest and fast overnight in preparation.
- 不幸的是，到了隔天早上，急診又突然來了許多受傷需要立即手術的病人，所以這位小弟的手術被延遲了“Unfortunately due to a number of very urgent cases requiring immediate trauma surgery Robbie’s operation was postponed.
- 醫院再次告訴他回家等候電話通知手術。When he returned with mum Emma they were sent home again and told to wait for a phone call to reschedule the surgery.
- 這位母親立刻帶他到20里外的醫院，那裏的醫院立即手術。
She took Robbie 20 miles to Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield where they operated immediately. - 之後他住院打了兩天抗生素。
He was then put on an antibiotic drip for two days in case the wound had become infected.
- 整篇報導都沒有出現醫護人員的姓名、照片、個人資料
無論是家屬方的描述或是抱怨對象，記者採訪的醫院方面人員，沒有任何一個醫護人員的姓名出現；就連醫院的發言人，都沒有被寫出來是誰。
如果是國內媒體，大概就是斗大的某某某醫師姓名和照片公布出來。可以參考民視、Ettoday、蘋果是怎麼報導亞東醫院急診事件的。 - 事件中醫療方是由醫院為單位來面對
無論是新聞報導的對象，或是出來說明的代表，都是醫院，而不是個人。讓承受關注、檢討的對象，集中在醫院，這也代表醫療服務是由醫院整體來提供，並非是個人。 - 英國公醫制度，是如何運行？
以台灣來說，如果遇到這樣案例，如果當下不能立即手術，有幾個選擇－醫院協助聯繫轉院，在急診或是住院之後等開刀；很少會從急診要病人回家等到隔天再來手術。
- I had a 3cm long splinter in my knee cap that had to be removed surgically. I got sent home with the order to be "nil by mouth" for 24 hours and that they would call me in the morning for my operation time. Well they didnt I had to call them after not eating for 30 hours to be told I had to wait another 5 days before they could "fit me in". Needless to say it was a little more than sore. When are they going to start spending more money on the NHS?

這位英國鄉民說，他的膝蓋有個3公分的鋼板要手術移除，她被送回家被要求禁食24小時然後早上通知他手術，但是醫院在他已經整整30小時沒有吃東西後，才又告訴他還要等五天才排得進去…最後這位鄉民結論＂什麼時候他們才願意花多點錢在NHS？＂ - My son broke a bone in his hand last Saturday....... He has been to the hospital every day this week and been told that they are "too busy" to re-set the bone.............................. So today, we try again.........PLEASE, wish us luck.............................................................- F H, Sad Britain..., 16/11/2012 15:38
這位悲傷的英國人說，他兒子上個禮拜六摔斷手骨，這個禮拜他每天都到醫院報到，醫院每天都說太忙沒辦法幫他把骨頭復位，所以今天我還要帶他到醫院，請祝我們好運。 - This the reality of over population...Cant blame the Hospital !
Hospitals are having to cut staff, trim budgets and treat more people. Blame the Government they are the ones cutting the costs. If that hospital could not do operation his mum did right to seek help elsewhere. Im with Lionheart on this one. Money spent on getting people out the country this year could have gone to Hospitals
it's interesting how many are so quick to slate the NHS well you can't have it both ways people - do you want a cheap health service or one that actually works??? What will happen is that you will have less and less available free and have to pay for more and more of your health service. Blame yourselves for wanting it for free and yet still wanting state of the art, cutting edge healthcare.
A&E closures and hospital staff reductions will lead to more and more non life threatening injuries such as this from being treated immediately. If the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth was known there would have been patients in that A&E whose lives were being saved by what few staff were available to operate. The government is responsible for this situation, not the NHS nor the understaffed A&E's and wards.
這幾篇都是說NHS經費太少，只好讓醫療服務下降，所以是政府要負責!!不能責怪醫護人員。 - When the NHS is allowed to be used and abused as it is by people from the third world we shouldnt really be too surprised that there is no money or time left for treating British people. - Ivan, Gotham City, United Kingdom, 15/11/2012 19:43
Perhaps they were too busy operating on illegal immigrant extremist cleric to see a BRITISH subject?- Mary, Neuilly Sur Eure, 15/11/2012 19:44
This is what you get when anyone from any country enters Britain and is entitled to free health care. Absolutely disgusting treatment of one of our own citizens. His wound must be at risk of serious infection too, and to make matters worse he is a child. Makes you wonder why we pay our NI & Taxes who is actually benefiting from them?- Annette, Birmingham, 15/11/2012 20:05
好幾篇投書，都是說NHS被其他非法移民等等等消耗，所以沒有錢照顧英國人。台灣要不要考慮一下？
