Does everybody within the service know what is expected of them at the present time in addressing the salient issues that have again appeared and reappeared over recent years and is everybody aware of the necessity to implement a particular, specific programme to avoid those kinds of things re-occurring?

Of course, emergencies will recur, but it is the speed with which we react to those emergencies which will reassure the public and the staff within the said health services.
