Hyperbaric Treatment Being Denied To Thousands Of Desperate Patients? Part 5

http://www.balancedhealthtoday.com http://www.balancedhealthtoday.com/hyperbaric-chamber.html

The hand-to-mouth existence of a non-profit-making centre such as Breath for Life is shaming. The charity charges £10 for children and £25 for adults for a 90-minute session in the oxygen chamber, compared with fees of up to £380 an hour charged by some private units.

The centre has just been threatened with "enforcement procedures" by the Healthcare Commission unless it pays £580 for one of its staff, Dave Holehouse, a life-support technician with 25 years' experience, to attend a course qualifying him to inspect the centre's 45ft oxygen pipeline.

"We have not got all the fancy gases they have in hospitals, delivered through miles of pipes," he says, "but we are being treated as if we had. Ninety-eight per cent of the course I won't need for my job and the other two per cent I already know."

The Healthcare Commission says it is trying to interpret statutory safety requirements sensitively but that charity staff must have "relevant and up-to-date training". Few would disagree, especially where vulnerable patients - many of them children - are concerned.

But there does appear to be an argument for charities providing services the NHS cannot - or does not want to - to have special status.

Jane Dean wants the Department of Health to reclassify charitable hyperbaric oxygen treatment centres as hospices, which have lower registration and inspection fees. "We are a tiny little postage stamp on the face of the earth, but we are plugging health service shortcomings on a daily basis. Surely that counts for something.''
