Report criticises several aspects of Island health service
The Department of Health and Social Care says it's already working to improve facilities, after a new report found several services to be lacking.
The West Midlands Quality Review Service criticised areas such as stroke and imaging services, inpatient care at Ramsey Cottage Hospital, and community mental health provisions.
Elsewhere, the renal unit at Noble's Hospital was labelled 'not fit for purpose' - posing an apparent infection control risk, and compromising patients' privacy.
The DHSC admits there is room for improvement, but Medical Director Dr Jugnu Mahajan (ma-HAR-jan) says some areas are already being tackled:
Smile of Mann programme to start in primary schools next year
Loganair passengers yet to be reunited with bags left in Manchester on Sunday
Kirk Michael man taking on 31 marathons in 31 days in memory of friend
Government grant partially funded fishing vessel later used for smuggling
CRHS plans are progressing, insists education minister
