Sarah Teather MP talks to local nurses

Sarah Teather MP has helped to launch a new website to help paint a true picture of the National Health Service. The site is designed to help her party listen to the views and concerns of NHS staff, patients and members of the public.

The site, which can be found at http://www.LibDemNHSWatch.com, includes a letter from the party's health spokesman, Steve Webb MP, who writes about various Government reforms of the health service.

Sarah Teather MP said:

"In Brent we're lucky to have a dedicated team of healthcare professionals. But much of the high quality healthcare we have in this area is despite the Government and not because of it.

"To help improve the NHS, and to assist my fellow Liberal Democrats and I in holding the Government to account, we want to hear from patients who have difficulty accessing treatment, and from professionals prevented from providing services the community needs. We also want to hear from you if you have had good treatment and seen good things happening that should be happening everywhere.

"Currently, there are few outlets for people to tell their stories or expose issues that point to larger problems. The Government would rather that these stories do not see the light of day. We disagree".

"LibDemNHSWatch.com will allow us to identify which NHS reforms are working, which targets distort clinical priorities and which issues those inside the 'Westminster bubble' really need to know about."

Notes:

1. The Liberal Democrat campaigning website can be found at http://www.LibDemNHSWatch.com

2. Constituents of Sarah Teather MP should of course still contact her directly if they have a particular personal issue which needs taking up with the health authorities.

    If you are a resident of the Brent Central constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
