10. The Times 25/7/2015
Seven-day work is no big deal . Our staff have done it for
years
A hospital boss says his colleagues and patients are happy blazing a trail for
Jeremy Hunt’s plans.
‘ Everyone ’ says David Evans , “ sees us as weird…we’ve been quietly doing
seven-day working since 2004” says Mr Evans , the Medical Director of
Northumbria NHS Trust. “ It just so happens that we find we now align
with the things coming from the minister.”
