Summary
In this episode of The Human Risk podcast, host Christian Hunt speaks to Dr Gordon Caldwell, a retired NHS Consultant and Clinical Lead about the impact of medical bureaucracy. In 2019, Gordon had a photograph taken of himself lying next to a long line of forms, to highlight the amount of paperwork healthcare professionals need to fill in. Gordon is a campaigner against bureaucracy, and he wanted to make the point that time spent filling in forms is time spent not looking after patients.
In the podcast, Christian and Gordon discuss:
- the genesis of the photograph and why Gordon felt motivated to take it
- the reasons why there is so much bureaucracy within the NHS
- the impact this has on patient care
- what Gordon sees as ways to improve it.
