Patients Experience Health Care From State Of Health

In an article in Daily Mail, it stated that one out of three is not aware of who to call during out-of-hours according to Watchdog. A quarter is not even treated with dignity. Most of them are elderlies whose NHS care received are poor and often lacking dignity. The CQC or Care Quality Commission reviewed four failing health trusts after being aware of the findings.

Although 1.7 Million adults who suffer from mental illnesses such as anxiety, depression, and self-harm are being treated, 1 out of 4 patients still has to endure their condition for a long time while many of them will receive theirs needed care for only several weeks or months.

Due to stigma, Jeremy Hunt, the Secretary of State for Health since 2012, made a pledge that he will ensure that mental health will be a national priority as cited on dailymail.co.uk.

After surveying more than 13,000 adults are receiving treatments just earlier in 2016 belonging from the 58 trusts in England, 35 percent remarked that they were receiving inadequate health care and that 32 percent are not guaranteed about who to call when they need help.

A quarter of the patients who had a crisis in the last 12 months even admitted that they weren't able to get help according to www.guardian.com. The Care Quality Commission urged the higher-ups to make immediate actions for improvement after such findings after their review about the four trusts.

The Isle of Wight, West London, Coventry and Warwickshire, Norfolk and Suffolk were the places included. CQC's lead for mental health, Dr. Paul Lelliott, said that gravely concerned by the lack of improvement overall in trusts in England. He had written and reassured those identified as performing worse about what they'll do to take response.

The leader of Lib Dems, Tim Farron, even said that improvement is urgently needed. A large number of people with a mental health condition who are receiving inadequate mental health care is inexcusable. He stated that the government should recognize this crisis and promise the people the funding in the recent Autumn Statement.

Earlier this Autumn, 50% of health boards showed in the figures plan to cut their budget on mental health care. Many concerns were raised. Some are even outraged. Failing to investigate more than a thousand of unexplained deaths, including Connor Sparrowhawk, is not a joke.
