Sandwell Hospital

There was an article on local news a few years back about a health authority who had computerised its pill dispensing and saved 20%. Can't remember the £ note figure but it was substantial.

Lady I know moved from admin in industry to a similar role in the NHS. She was truly shocked as to how much in the dark ages their systems were. Stock figures against actual were hopelessly inaccurate some over, some under.

My lads mate sells computer systems and his favourite customers are public institutions such as hospitals and schools who often just renew each year and pay a premium in the the same we do if we just renew our insurances.

The NHS: Wonderful institution but oh dear! Deal with a small business owner (we have a few on here) and by crikey do they drive a hard bargain.
