HEALTH SERVICE ???

OUR HEALTH CAN BE IMPROVED  (by S.B)

 It is quite clear that everybody needs to be healthy and it is one of the human rights that all the world should have. In Spain the National Health Service is a public and universal service, besides it is free for Spanish residents, although private health care is becoming more frequent.

First of all, nowadays older people are assisted by their general practitioner more frequently, because of all kinds of chronic illnesses, such as arthritis, diabetes, heart disease or chest infection. There is a reason why we usually have to wait for aN appointment. Moreover, there are many young people who have accidents because of adventure sports. Secondly, privatethe private health care seems to offer more personal attention because of comfortable accommodation, safety and privacy although if you don't have too much money for a monthly payment when you are getting sick, it's difficult to be helped quickly. In many aspects, I entirely agree with the staff and system of the NHS, above all because of its speed when there is an urgency. For instance, immediately they send you an ambulance and they have got the most advanced technology. However, on the other hand, with the NHS you don't always see the same doctor or specialist in hospital and therefore,  you have to explain your health issues to various different doctors again.

In conclusion, I believe that there is nothing perfect and maybe if I have an accident or illness, I would like to be checked by a kind staff and a professional medical team.
