I am writing to you in relation to the articles on the bed crisis.

I did not realise until I read this that the hospital was only to treat emergency patients and surgical patients. They say people will be treated at home.

How can this be when Social Services are constantly having to cut their services now to elderly, disabled, and chronically ill? The idea is admirable, but as far as I can see not feasible without more staff and money.
