LET'S DEBATE: CHANGE.101

DEBATE OUTLINE

Administration - a meeting of people

It's been shown that healthcare is out of balance with society's needs.  The mainstream approach ignores our body's natural ability to heal itself.  Our bodies strive for balance and harmony and with that achieved, good health and wellbeing is more easily attained. 
This debate is about identifying what it is we all want and need - taking a look at all the possibilities available.

"If you have a healthy body - you'll have a healthy mind.  If you have a healthy mind - you'll have a healthy life!"

DEBATE DESCRIPTION

The subject of healthcare could hardly be more important to any of us at this time. Over the last three years, in particular, we have seen the NHS brought to a near-standstill in the service it provides across the board to patients.

Waiting lists are at their all-time high now, with one in ten of the population waiting for interventions and treatments of different kinds. Many of us have experienced appointments being cancelled or re-arranged and at short notice, which is indicative of a system which is failing.

Despite the record sums of funding channelled to the NHS and even more being necessary to properly fund all staff, we are witnessing on a daily basis the service being brought to its knees. This - we presume - is not due to a lack of professionalism or devotion on the part of front-line clinicians and supporting staff. This being so, it is surely time now to take an analytical look at how this cornerstone of society has reached such a position, where it's in danger of either complete collapse or complete takeover by commercial interests.

This debate - the fourth in the series - will also explore the wider issues of healthcare, giving light to a much-needed new approach in how we maintain and recover our health. That is, potentially an approach which is more aligned to working with our bodies' natural healing mechanisms, as opposed to being wholly reliant upon allopathic treatments.

There is no better time than now for a debate on all these issues to commence. Furthermore, a debate on healthcare needs to involve the general public, the very users of the service - we, the customers.

The purpose of this debate is to gain and share as many different insights and viewpoints as is possible. These insights and viewpoints will come from practitioners - both inside and outside the NHS - and importantly, from people like you and me - the users of healthcare services, both currently and in the future.

Finally, one may think it's a strange thing to occur - the community coming together to debate something which is usually only in the domain of government. From many people's perspectives, however, the size of this healthcare problem - which potentially now requires a more philosophical approach to solving the issues - is actually seen as too large a task for just 650 representative SMPs to deal with alone.
