The title of this post is the names of a podcast on the BBC Sounds app. It is a two part program and is well worth listening to.

Thank you for the podcast and @SimonInEdinburgh for providing the link.
As always with these things, they tend to send me wandering all over the internet and listening to other other interviews…and nothing else gets done

Thanks so much for signposting these podcasts. I have just listened to the two episodes and they were excellent. It was great to hear about people’s experiences that whilst different in some ways also echoed mine. The second episode which focussed on rehab was also really interesting.
I was however genuinely intrigued by the conversation around the improving standards of hospital care especially regarding emergency admission. My experience was very different, and from reading this forum it would appear so for others (and not in a good way - difficulty or delay in diagnosing well beyond the magic 3-4hrs etc). I am curious whether this is as a result of the differences in quality of treatment outside of London or whether it is a result of us now being in 20023/24 - after COVID, as opposed to 2015 when this podcast was produced.

Rufus, i was taken to Bournemouth hospital after my stroke and got attended to straight away. i spent about 5 weeks there and then transferred to Lymington Stroke Ward. Lymington was outstanding. the staff and care provided was first class. couldn’t have asked for better.
