Patient shares experience on patient transfers
An Island resident being treated in the UK for bladder cancer says the patient transfer process can make his illness even more draining.
Peter Luft was speaking after the issue was raised in the House of Keys yesterday.
In response to concerns raised by Onchan MHK Rob Callister, Health and Social Care Minister David Ashford confirmed a review of the patient transfer process was being undertaken by the Department of Health and Social Care.
Mr Luft says he's been back and forth since last September when he was first diagnosed, which is both tiring and expensive:
Lack of opportunity to study science 'could be impacting future doctors'
Glen Maye patient airlifted to the UK
Trial for man who denies being controlling and coercive
Visitors asked to avoid main cemetery entrance on Sunday
Onchan man accused of committing act against public justice
Douglas Council using reserves to pay for 'decorative' promenade lighting
