One of the biggest problems is that *noone* takes decisions. *everything* is decided by committee. There needs to be some way to empower people to make decisions, and allow them to make mistakes, at least on the non-medical side.

Or you have external managers running things, who have no respect form the medical staff. My other half works for the NHS.
