Manx Care attempting to stop DNA's
Manx Care is going to pilot 'partial booking' in Noble's Hospital's orthopaedic department.
It's in an attempt to tackle high numbers of people not attending their appointments.
The system - which gives people an estimated date - was introduced in the UK by the Department of Health in 1999.
Director of Operations Oliver Radford explained some of the reasons for missed appointments at yesterday's board meeting:
Assisted Dying Bill is compliant with European human rights laws, insists mover
Campaigner is threatening legal action if the legislation is enacted
Cervical screening still important despite promising new study
Local charity reacts to results of study funded by Cancer Research UK

Hyperbaric Chamber Facility plans to soft launch later this year
