'The public are deeply, deeply concerned', says Rob Callister
The former health minister believes Manx Care is facing a 'funding crisis' and is urging both the health and chief ministers to engage with senior executives at Manx Care to address the ongoing issues.
Manx Care recently announced a series of cuts to patient-facing services in an effort to reduce its overspend.
The move is expected to cut an additional £5 million, bringing the total overspend down to £8 million.
However, Onchan MHK Rob Callister says there are serious discussions to be had:
Care funding reform report delayed following ministerial change
Charity plans baby loss memorial garden at Noble's Hospital
New rights for neonatal care leave and carer's leave on the way
Manx Wildlife Trust launches new internship programme
Improving Island's whistleblowing policies like 'turning an oil tanker', says PSC
