BBC News - Orchid View inquest: Pharmacist 'sickened by care home'
"Later, the inquest heard from the former regional manager Sarah O'Mara who denied claims she did not make enough visits to Orchid View, and also denied there was a policy of having no agency workers because of financial constraints.
The coroner said to her: "I haven't heard you take responsibility at all."
Ah, 'responsibility', one of those old fashioned words that didn't make it into the lexicon of 21st Century Management.

Jesus of Nazareth by Pope Benedict XVI My rating: 5 of 5 stars I was pleasantly surprised by how readable and encouraging this book is. Pope Benedict XVI has shown himself to have a fantastic understanding of the Gospels and their sources, as well he should!
