Steve Barclay was on at 8 am on Radio 4 the other day talking about how he was due to meet with the doctors union. At 9 am, he had cancelled the meeting due to 'other commitments' i.e he wanted to carry on doing his media round talking about how nurses should be more productive. I think it shows how much disdain he has for the entire workforce, and why the strike is absolutely necessary to call the public's attention to this feckless nonsense ministers might routinely do, as this is a game to them, but has no place when you're talking about healthcare! The other tory talking point was that excess deaths are due to covid treatment delays, and europe is affected. NHS England estimates 300-500 excess deaths specifically due to hospital pressures and A&E waiting times, this is before the strikes, comparing covid deaths from earlier in the year, and deaths from 2019. The strikes are a last ditch effort to change things. Junior and middle grade doctors are earning 30% less in real terms than they did in 2011, and the job is getting harder due to staff shortages, fewer training jobs despite the waiting list going up, leading to more people leaving. The fix for this is simple, and costs less than all the money they squandered on useless PPE, dodgy contracts for their mates, and stupid plans resulting in our current economic state.

We? No. WE support sacking the greedy, overpaid nurses and replacing them.

40 years ago, some change happened in NHS. Nurses HAD to have Degrees. We lost people who were not Academically driven. They had "Caring" as THEIR main driver. Auxiliary Nurses were the backbone who did the bathing, feeding, chatting to.. patients. Nurses now don't have time to do the "Caring" aspect. They are "Nursing". So, we removed people who didn't give drugs or do paperwork. THEY "Cared" for the patient, and let Medics take care of Medical matters. We need non-Degree Auxillary Nurses/Carers as the human side of Hospital. At same time 40 years ago, we closed Convalescent Homes. They worked in tandem with Hospitals, taking people who didn't need to be in Hospital any longer, but weren't quite ready to go home, or had no Care Package to support Home Discharge. If you remove one whole section of NHS (Convalescent Homes) you leave Hospitals coping with "bed blocking" and expensive Care. Convalescent Homes operated on more patients to each Carer than Hospital model. You only needed one or two Doctors to cover all of the Home, a couple of Nurses, and the rest of the staff were Auxillary staff. We can fix NHS by simply going BACK in time to 1960s/70s, when Convalescent Homes and Auxillary Nurses took up the slack from Hospitals and Qualified Nurses.

Every professional in a hospital must be degreed. Otherwise, the person who mops the room is delivering medical care.

Note the 'average time to be seen'.. 108 mins = Nearly TWO HOURS .. This is NOT representative of the true waiting time across A and E departments nationwide. NOR this hospital, it applies to that moment in time.. another time and that time could be HOURS and HOURS ie 4 hours, 6 hours. DO remember as well that to 'be seen' does NOT mean by a Doctor etc NOR does it mean that the person waiting ie the 'patient' will not be left waiting for HOURS after this. Patients can end up waiting for HOURS and then if it is decided they need to be admitted to hospital?? Further HOURS stuck on a trolley in the corridor before being moved to a ward et FACT.

Interview with that Dr was edited poorly and cut up, he had his arms infront of him then in the next shot they were folded then it looked like they were infront of him again. The words he's saying doesn't match his lip movement but he's wearing a mask covering his mouth so he could've said anything and we'd never know. That's a bit sus reporting.

The two tier system also means that the rich are going to private even though they've already paid for public. Isn't it better for the NHS?

If your "socialized medicine" isn't working, then scrap National Insurance contributions and let people choose their own health plan with that extra money....this will stimulate a network of privately run hospitals with competitive salaries...like here in the US.

This is the only way to quickly get new well qualified and competent personnel. These jobs should be for UK kids. All the world has a shortage of doctors, nurses etc and UK is the worst in Europe. To reap grain you must saw grain seeds or you will not have an harvest. The same is for doctors nurese engeneers etc. Is not good that they just sit on it while their wages have gone up by £30.000 since Cameron stepped in office and reduced funding for the NHS. They have very generous wages plus other jobs and still get their meals refunded. They ate £17 million worth of food in the last 3 years alone and yet they claim that the state has no money for school meals, for sending kids to university for social care etc. I do not mean to take away their priviledges but I do think that they must invest in people and pay for high achieving poorer students to go to university and schools for all the places where is hard to fill vacancies. I think that the govern should increase pay for NHS staff, should increase hospital beds, machinery and social care.

hello my dear

I believe that the lack of ability to see a GP has created much of the problems in hospitals. At one time when GPs actually worked a full week and unsocial hours , A and E departments were not over crowded as they are today, add to that "the nanny state" expectations of many of the public, who because it is free abuse the whole system instead of using their brains. Then we have unprecedented amounts of immigrants, both legal and illegal who willingly use the NHS, without making any contribution. Plus nurses who train at "uni" who haven't any idea of basic patient care, and would rather spend time clustered around a computer screen, ignoring patients and discussing their private lives instead of spending valuable time with their charges. These are the reasons the NHS does not work. If nurses trained on the wards as we did in the 70s the students would be counted as part of the staff, they would alleviate much of the staffing shortage, and have the discipline and ability to cope when qualified.

This is so out of touch. Most GP’s work normal full time, just not NHS full time (remember 37 hours as a doctor is considered ‘part time’ and there is an expectation to come in early and leave late for every shift). Student nurses DO train on the wards and they ARE counted as staff (even though they shouldn’t be). And I’m sorry but as a doctor i have to admit new nurses are significantly better then the older trained ones, and once they have gained experience will far exceed the previous generation. Their extra university training genuinely does help because they are expected to do 10x the work a nurse in the 70’s would be.

And this is becoming common place with our neighboring healthcare systems as well. NO arguments that medicine is vastly different between UK and USA, and frankly there are some things I wish the USA would model after the UK. We are all just stretched to the max right now even post-COVID and we have never been given the opportunity to catch our breath, and it doesn't look like that will happen. Yet, in the USA the government and insurance companies are always wanting more and more regulations and oversight that does absolutely nothing but take time away from clinical care and does nothing to improve quality or cost saving/resource utilization. It has made it 10 times harder to get anything done.

But what about all these doctors who get a VERY good salary from the NHS, but keep limited hours in NSH surgeries/hospitals, as they still make tons of money in private practice too?? I don't think that's right. You are either one or the other. IF you are more concerned with making money, then stick to your private practice only.

Private practice in most cases only makes up a small percentage of their workload. The NHS makes up the bulk of their workload. Also, only some doctors do private practice many doctors do not do private practice. Doctors NHS wage for what they do and how hard they work, is not great and much lower than what doctors are paid in other countries. After 5-6 years at university they start on average including enhancements at about £34,000 a year, in most cases this slowly rises to £80,000 - £90,0000 over 12-15 years. Those fortunate enough to become Consultants will slowly increase to £120,000 over a further 10 years.

More nurses and paramedics are required. Health workers have to focus on that instead of More pay.

The main failure behind this is doctors are not taking responsibility to diagnose n treat patient. In spite it is all dependent on nurses. In this country a midwife takes full control and responsibility of pregnant women throughout till delivery. My God, a gynecologist doctor must be included in each expecting mother whether it is normal or complicated case. I lost my baby because everything was normal in my case. Was never seen or hear my request to see them once.So if you want safe delivery some complications during pregnancy is better according to uk nhs care plan. You will get better attention if you have more complications. Also hospital upgrade is that A&E is busy not to visit if it isn't emergency. For your kind information nobody will be visiting your hospital unnecessarily.There is always a reason we visit hospital and that is necessary. In a dental appointment, she said my nerve looks damaged after a month of permanent filing in a cavity as I was experiencing severe pain. So I asked them what to do. She told me like RCT is needed. So I requested to book appointment dfor RCT.To my surprise she prescribed me fluoride toothpaste and said to wait if pain will subside with that toothpaste. So my nerve will be damaged permanently which means RCT is not possible except extraction. So here is big problem, nhs do not focus on sustainable treatment but keep on trying assuring us, using alternative like use of pain killer and scheduling for next appointment. These all reason led to more people in queue for next appointment, no early full treatment causing severe problems in future. Take a good care of yourself n your family. If you are in medical field especially immigrants working in uk please work more properly, being immigrant myself I experienced most of immigrants are more irresponsible and careless.Do not sacrifice someone's life just to earn more than in your country. For innocent immigrating people fly back to your country if you want to be alive whenever you feel health care services are needed.

I think big business should have more corporate social responsibility and dig their hands in their pockets and pool donations to the NHS as well. There’s 170+ billionaires in the uk today.

Of course, what's happening has been carefully planned for many decades, and executed in a brutal manner. Even though the NHS has ALWAYS had enough funding (fact), it will be destroyed within the next few years.

The government needs to be thrown out and let the nation get our country back on track as its a joke and humiliation With all due respect why can you get better pay working at Iceland then being part of the NHS like myself and I was an ambulance transport driver working flat out during covid and well before covid The appeal to be a nurse / paramedic or firefighter or social care worker whether it's a home or supported living or becoming a teacher There wages should be better and more incentive instead it's work like a pig 24-7 and get nothing back but these people carry on cause they love the job

Nhs using lots of agency staff and paying lots of money why can’t they give money to own staff and that’s way to encourage more regular staff to work and cover shift. Also increase cares for community care .

Oh there we are, the migrant myth. Another Tory party divide and rule tactic. Fact check: The Migration Advisory Committee report on EEA migration from 2018 found ‘no evidence that migration has reduced the quality of healthcare’. Immigrants should not be blamed for the pressures in A&E and other parts of the NHS. The reasons behind these pressures - unsurprisingly - are far more complex: a mix of growing and changing population health needs, chronic workforce shortages, a decade of austerity in funding for the NHS and other public services, and many other factors. What is clear, however, is that the health and care system depends on its international staff to help fix the mess it’s in.

It wasn’t ‘put on hold’ for covid. Essentially services were streamlined because there weren’t enough staff to cover the extra demand on top of normal services for two reasons 1) healthcare workers got covid ALOT (because they were both around covid patients and often travel to work on public transport) 2) HDU type beds requiring respiratory support had to be created overnight due to demand, these require significantly more staff per bed then a standard hospital patient would
