Chesterfield doctors say contract changes would put patients at risk
Junior doctors at Chesterfield Royal Hospital say they are being forced to strike tomorrow to protect patient safety at the trust in the future.
Dr Mohita Damany, who works at Chesterfield Royal and is a BMA representative, said that if planned alterations to contracts being forced through by Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt get the green light, it will be unfair for doctors and potentially dangerous for patients.
She said: “This proposed contract is not safe and the reason for the strike is to ensure that all future contracts for doctors working in the NHS are safe for patients.
