NHS doctors are prematurely ending the lives of thousands of elderly hospital patients because they are difficult to manage or to free up beds, a senior consultant claimed yesterday.
Professor Patrick Pullicino said doctors had turned the use of a controversial ‘death pathway’ into the equivalent of euthanasia of the elderly.
He claimed there was often a lack of clear evidence for initiating the Liverpool Care Pathway, a method of looking after terminally ill patients that is used in hospitals across the country.
Top doctor's chilling claim: The NHS kills off 130,000 elderly patients every year | Mail Online
Since were going into the Universal Health care I just wanted all of the people who support it think about this
Is there some backup to this claim, or are we supposed to trust a disgruntled doctor to tell the truth? I would assume if there is some sort of policy of killing off the elderly he would have some form of memo, instruction book, or something to validate his claims from the NHS.
If not his is about the same as me saying Mitt Romney Kills old people for fun and profit. I know this happens because I have seen him do it, and I deliver old people to his house for his old people death parties.
Some Doctor said is really not proof of much without some evidence to back it up. I know you want to believe anything bad said about nationalized health care, but some of us are a bit more intelligent and discerning and would prefer something like solid evidence and not just some guy wanting to get on the news.
