    So no real answer again.
  • Thanks to the Atos rep and the others that answered my question, well nearly!

    The DWP say the Doctor was specially trained in disability analysis, when asked what this training was they said Atos do the training.

    I'm really interested in this training as it allowed the Doctor in 15 minutes of questions, got my Wife to stand up, lean forward, lean back and then sit down, after this he was able to report to the DWP that she could walk 200 metres.

    As this training is obviously so good I want to know all about it as I think I could sell it to many businesses!

    To clarify this point, it is our customer services team who register complaints and they are very happy to investigate individual circumstances if people contact us directly. On this forum I can explain what the process is. If people report that hasn’t been the case in their particular circumstance they are welcome to contact us directly. Sorry if I have not been able to provide the information you were seeking.

    How come you can now tell us your compant process over the phone now?
    In one of you other posts you told us that we could not be told as it was owned by the DWP and we would have to ask them about the process ?
    :jYou can have everything you wont in lfe, If you only help enough other people to get what they wont.:j

    Hi HB58,

    Yes, Atos Healthcare conducts training,.

    We've all seen the training that Atos give its so called "healthcare professionals" on the Panorama TV programme. It's so good and comprehensive that the trainers qualifications weren't even recognised in this country!!!!

    This was the programme where Atos admitted that Atos work to targets from the DWP!!!

    Isn't YouTube wonderfull!!! :D

    Any hope of ATOS even finding any questions in what has become a school ground argument has got to be zero now

    Well, it's not as if they ever get any kind of adequate answer anyway.

    Hi skeggysteve

    All of the HCP training materials are owned by the DWP, so you would need to ask the DWP for them.

    So the DWP don't really need you then, do they?

    But who else is low enough to do the DWPs dirty work and throw sick and disabled people off their benefits! :D
