More details from petition creator

Wiltshire Primary Care Trust has not taken due notice of local peoples wishes but rather has resorted to sham public consultations. It has embarked on a programme of local hospital closures ignoring public opinion e.g Westbury Hospital which was an excellent local hospital. It has reduced hospital beds to dangerous levels and is closing maternity units and A and E units requiring patients to travel awkward long journeys(often 20 miles plus) for treatment. Local people gave a million pounds towards Westbury Hospital over the years and yet none of this benefits those people and their families now. The system of nursing teams visiting homes (rather than hospital treatment) is less accountable and proving very poor at present. I believe that future independent assessors will find their systems deeply flawed. They should be replaced by an elected group sensitive to local needs rather than leaving us with a self-interested undemocratic quango of 'placemen' or should I say placepeople.
