It was developed to help doctors and nurses provide quality end-of-life care, to transfer quality end-of-life care from the hospice to hospital setting. Now discredited, the LCP was widely abused as a 'tick box exercise', with patients being casually assessed as terminal, heavily sedated, and denied water so the diagnosis became self-fulfilling. Hospitals were also provided cash incentives to achieve targets for the number of patients placed on the LCP. |

She turned up at a drop in clinic, a minor injuries department where the most they will do is bandage you up and other trivial clinical procedures. They cannot set a double fracture, you need an accident and emergency department whether you're, 6 or 65 or in-between. The paramedics took her to the wrong place, probably even made the suggestion it was about age. |

Half scientists and doctors work to achieving this, and the other half to let the people over 65 die. We live in an insane world. Living that long (over 150 years) doesnt help the economy, the demographics, the food sources, the living space etc. We all understand that such technological advances cannot apply to all the senior people of the future. They just dont tell us. Ostria |
