Jeremy Hunt has been awarded ‘Humanitarian Award’ at the World Patient Safety Summit for his global leadership on patient safety.
The Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt MP, was given the prestigious award during a ceremony at the 6th Annual World Conference on Patient Safety yesterday.

Previous winners of the award include; President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and Dr. Patrick H. Conway – all of whom worked tirelessly towards free and equal access to healthcare services in the US.


Every year the Patient Safety Movement Foundation identifies the most influential advocates in patient safety and honours them with the Humanitarian Award at the annual World Patient Safety, Science and Technology Summit. This award recognises leaders who have made significant progress in eliminating preventable patient deaths – aiming towards a shared goal of zero by 2020.

Unbelieveable! 😱 This is the man who undermined the whole health service by suggesting that you were more likely to die at weekends due to staff shortages when that wasn't true, but led to many people delaying seeking help because of it. Also instrumental in creating staff shortages that create pressures and extended waiting lists. I could go on :(
 
I’d like to blow him a big fat raspberry........ well more than that actually but I don’t want to get banned.
 
I have to ask - in all seriousness - what the Dickens* the health service would be like WITHOUT him being so instrumental in making us so safe?

* not the word I wanted to use, but my first choice isn't allowed.
 
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unbelievable.

It belittles the work of previous award winners.
