28DL and UE in the News Belvoir Park Hospital, Belfast, BBC 19 June 2012

[Styru]

Not a '28DL in the news' as such - but those that have been here a while will remember the news-fest that surrounded all the stuff that was left behind at Belvoir in Belfast.

Indeed, if I remember rightly there were all sorts of threats made by the Trust to get the pics removed from here - although very little effort actually made in moving the notes/xrays

Well it's come back to bite the Health Trust -

The Belfast Health Trust has been fined £225,000 after thousands of patient records were found abandoned in a disused hospital.

The Information Commission imposed the fine because the trust failed to secure confidential files at Belvoir Park Hospital, which closed in 2006

Interesting article - apparently people were stealing records and putting them on the web to sell (were they bollocks!)

I was over in NI last september. I bitterly regret not paying a visit to this, and other things. Oh well, it's only an hour's flight away. Must go back.
Northern Ireland is beautiful, it must be said.

I love it when they need to add a selling point to the report. Who in any form of sanity would buy an X-Ray off Ebay? :crazy
