Further covering-up for Tallaght Hospital by Ms
H. Dixon. Evidence manipulated.
After over 4 years - No action to be taken
- it's all a big mistake.
[My previous articles set out the details] The illegally
released file contains hospital falsifications painting me as a time wasting
patient who missed appointments who also refused treatment and those
falsifications contradict original hospital documents. The falsifications
passed the blame from the hospital on to me for my crippled state.
Now Ms Dixon's written statutory decision, although ruling
in my favour, is nothing more than a propaganda document covering up the
deliberate nature of the hospital's and in particular Ms E. Hardiman's law
breaking, so as to not prosecute.
Ms Dixon's U-turn:
While this statutory decision records in different parts
that my complaint had been made to the Data Protection Commissioner [D.P.C.] on
7th Dec 2012 and that D.P.C. investigation started on 23rd Sept 2016 there's no
mention that this gap of nearly 4 years was caused by D.P.C. refusing my
complaint insisting that the hospital had done no wrong in releasing my medical
records, against my wishes, to outside third parties.
The rewriting of history:
The hospital has two sets of records - the earlier set
supports my claims and puts the blame on to them. The second later set
contradicts their early records and passes the blame on to me. Now the hospital
avails themselves of Ms Dixon's statutory decision to further rewrite history
to put themselves further in the clear.
Ms Dixon records that in December 2016 she outlined the
preliminary findings of her investigation to me. All she told me was that the
hospital had violated data law, there was absolutely nothing regarding the
'propaganda' below, so I had no opportunity to highlight the falsehoods as I've
done here in this article - but from correspondence she must have been aware of
them when making her decision.
All these 'facts' Ms Dixon records in her statutory decision
make it out to be all a big mistake on the part of the hospital and Ms Hardiman.
Everything was done for the best of intentions - so no prosecutions. But it's
all based on these proven [by documentation] falsehoods etc. All a big mistake,
while I'm left crippled for life and no action to be taken.
As I write this article I've been completely housebound for
over a month and usually in considerable pain, yet the only actions I see are
to cover-up.
Also refer to my article "A corrupt Data
Protection Commissioner in Tallaght Hospital's pocket." which this reinforces.
During 2012 and in order not to answer my complaints and not
to deal with me Tallaght Hospital, specifically the then CEO Ms E. Hardiman,
deliberately broke the law and sent, against my wishes, my medical records to
outside 3rd parties for 'review'.
Right up to present the hospital, specifically their present
CEO Mr Slevin, refuse to answer my complaints on the grounds that an outside
3rd party is undertaking a full review based on the illegal release [unfair
processing] of my medical records etc - Ms H. Dixon [D.P.C.] is aware of this
and in fact refused my request that my illegally released records be returned
to me by the 3rd parties.
For years the hospital and Ms Dixon have been fully aware
that the law had been deliberately broken but Ms Dixon has and continues to
abuse her authority to protect Ms Hardiman, Tallaght Hospital and staff.
Having refused to accept my complaint [made 2012] for 4
years with the ludicrous grounds that the hospital and Ms Hardiman had every
right to pass my medical records etc to outside 3rd parties against my wishes
and this had not violated the data laws - while the hospital and D.P.C. had
agreed privately in 2012 that the
hospital had broken the law.
[I wrote, for example, to D.P.C. in 2012 & 2013
regarding this but was totally ignored. Ignoring reasonable but awkward
correspondence seems to be policy],
Ms Dixon, having been caught out did a U-turn, investigated
my complaint and issued a statutory decision in March 2017.
Ms Dixon ruled that the hospital [Ms Hardiman] had broken
the law as they had "no legal basis for disclosing your sensitive personal
information" etc.
Despite this and having been given the proof that Ms
Hardiman deliberately broke the law and the hospital was profiting [and still
are] from the illegal acts [there can be no 'review' based on illegal acts] my
request for prosecution was refused by default. Ms Dixon had at first denied
she had the power to prosecute but under my pressure admitted she had.
Ms Dixon's statutory decision [she has refused any
discussion]:
# She highlights my refusal of the hospitals apology - but
says nothing about their refusal to rectify and answer my complaints or them
still standing by their claim that there's an ongoing 'review' [based on the
illegally released records] as a reason.
# She highlights the hospitals claim to have spent 2 years
trying to resolve my complaint - but says nothing regarding them refusing to
answer my complaints, both the 5 year old ones and more recent ones. Refusals
based on the illegal release of my file.
# She says nothing and does nothing regarding the hospital
continually profiting from their deliberate violation of the Data Protection
Act.
Hiding the proof of
Ms Hardiman's deliberate law breaking:
# Ms Dixon, while ignoring my request to prosecute and while
acknowledging my claim that the violations of the Data Protection Act were
deliberate [as opposed to the hospital's claim it was all a mistake], failed to
record Ms Hardiman's two written requests to me for my explicit permission to
release my records to outside 3rd parties for review [proving the deliberate
nature of Ms Hardiman's actions].
This is very telling in the light of Ms Dixon being aware
that the hospital's Ms Hardiman deliberately broke the law in releasing my
medical records in order to disseminate proven false documents, and -
Non- existent
'notifications':
# Ms Dixon cites, more than once, that the hospital had
written to me twice advising me that they would now be referring matters to
outside 3rd parties for review. That's false - these notifications don't exist
and I have asked Ms Dixon to produce these documents or to explain. So again we
have documentation 'invented' to suit purpose - just like the Medical Council,
who were forced to admit this via the Information Commissioner's legally
binding statutory decision.
False claim that I
never objected to my records being sent to outside 3rd parties:
# Ms Dixon records that I never objected to the hospital's
[Ms Hardiman's] suggestion that they send my records to outside 3rd parties for
review. That's false - as Ms E. Hardiman [then Tallaght Hospital CEO] personally
wrote to me twice specifically requesting my permission to release my records
and stating that once I'd given my consent she would recommend an outside 3rd
party review of said records. Twice I wrote to Ms Hardiman declining to give my
permission.
Ms Dixon fully accepts this falsehood to exonerate the
hospital and Ms Hardiman of any deliberate intent.
I have asked Ms Dixon to inform me what she intends to do
about these most serious matters and what rectification is to be offered to me.
Crippled for life due
to negligence and falsification justified:
# Ms Dixon records that the hospital had released my
confidential records to outside 3rd parties in order to care for my health and
for openness and transparency.
# openness and transparency - D.P.C. is fully aware that
Tallaght Hospital refused to give me a copy of the file they illegally released
but lets the hospital's falsehood go as it paints them in a 'good' light.
# health - the hospital attempts to justify [illegally]
releasing my file by saying, as recorded by Ms Dixon, it was their
responsibility as a hospital to provide as far as possible for my health,
happiness and welfare as a patient.
Yet they have left me crippled for life, falsified
documentation [contradicting other hospital records] refused to answer my
complaints and ignored my letters etc.
Ms Dixon is aware that the deliberate violations of the Data
Protection Act was used to disseminate falsifications to 3rd parties For
example, some of which helped Dr J. Noel deny the truth of his own letter and
contradict what he had told my G.P. to cover-up for negligence that left me, a
patient, crippled for life.
Looking at my longstanding and ongoing situation it's easy
to see why our health service is so bad and getting worse - patients have no
protection as hospitals and their staff etc are unaccountable, even to the
extent that they can break the law and be covered-up for.
My complaints, original and others, remain unanswered -
proving that Tallaght Hospital, their staff etc are unaccountable.
I'm left crippled for life, virtually housebound and in
constant pain and all Ms Dixon can think of is to cover-up for the hospital,
their staff and Ms E. Hardiman in particular.
I have offered Ms Dixon the opportunity to respond and
substantiate the propaganda by sending her a link to my article.
Ms Dixon had and has the opportunity to respond, with
evidence, if she believes anything I have published is incorrect or untrue.
Matters are so serious that if she does not avail of the
opportunity it can only be accepted that she agrees with everything in this and
other articles.
