Manx Care attempting to stop DNA's
Manx Care is going to pilot 'partial booking' in Noble's Hospital's orthopaedic department.
It's in an attempt to tackle high numbers of people not attending their appointments.
The system - which gives people an estimated date - was introduced in the UK by the Department of Health in 1999.
Director of Operations Oliver Radford explained some of the reasons for missed appointments at yesterday's board meeting:
'Incredible' Island has no strategy for its territorial waters, says MHK
Julie Edge says plans for a Manx Marine Spatial Plan are 'better than nothing'
Mooir Vannin project a 'once in a generation opportunity', says Ørsted
Offshore windfarm developers say it could lead to 10-15% reduction in electricity bills on-Island
