Why the UK is failing its NHS healthcare workers

Several unions of National Health Service workers in the UK have rejected a 5 percent raise offer from the government and are continuing to picket and strike. Long a target of Tory austerity measures, NHS workers have been squeezed between budget cuts on one hand and spiking inflation on the other. The results have been catastrophic, not only for workers themselves, but for as well, given the quality of healthcare the system is able to deliver deteriorates as pressure on workers increases. “I’m not enabled by this system anymore, by the NHS, to take proper care of my patients,” Bert Roman, a cancer nurse, told The Real News. With 47,000 nurses pushed from the profession by economic factors, most hospitals are trying to solve problems of understaffing by driving the remaining workers even harder.

  1. Your computer system is old as f
    It takes ages to get and an app, and when you get it is not enough

    Spanish public health is better why is it?

    you need to go to the root of the cause if you’re not properly organised you won’t work properly

  2. Why more workers in the NHS? It's not that there are no workers! Those are also unnecessary! Let them also take paracetamol, it will help them too! 🖕Idiots! Because that's all they can say! That's why? The Shoemaker can also be taken as a doctor or me because that's all paracetamol says, cover up! I have to eat school! Then there are the NHS recommendations, some morbid joke, 😈😤😡 what do they do with children here! Scumbags pretending to be doctors and incompetent child neglecters pretending to be parents! I thought child neglect was punished! Nausea! 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 Example: A child with scarlet fever can go to school after antibiotics! 🖕. It doesn't spread like that, but everyone here has strep throat!😤😤😤😤🤢🤮 All the time! Your child has lice, worms, conjunctivitis, he can go to school. A parent for the Handicapped species, they will take it! They love to raise their children as much as doctors, to be doctors! They learned how the paracetamol text is presented as propaganda.. Then cover up! Like a sugar addict who can eat everything, just shoot himself, and they don't understand why you have to blindly cut off your leg. There should be a strict diet of meat and vegetables, but not here.. Weird!!! 🤔😡🤢🤮 More workers will not help anyone because that is not the problem here. Yes, everyone can throw their trash under the bush. That's fine! Fools! 🙈☠️💩🤬 Shut up everyone, it's fine, so let's not change it!!!! Bacteria and viruses eat the dirt.

    Everyone go home and take paracetamol😂😂😂😂🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

  3. We all do hard jobs , I have a business , get no help from the government and struggle to pay my domestic bills and business bills , times that by a few million like me and guess what , we are all fuvking struggling , I work 7 days a week , 10 , 12 , 13 hours a day , fuck off

  4. These whingers who are becoming very similar to the just stop oil types are really getting on my nerves , the reason the NHS is failing people is because the majority of people who need help cannot navigate the NHS and it’s complex and disjointed and geographical bullshit , 6 out of ten doctors , nurses and the rest of them offer appalling standards of service and I’ve witnessed this at first hand and yet they all feel that they deserve a 19% payrise a private health care system is needed and soon , we need to get rid of thousands of overpaid dross and streamline the whole healthcare system , it’s the same with the DWP who are also out on strike , another disjointed and repulsive system where the lowlives that can navigate what they are entitled to get it all quickly and the needy who can’t don’t get it at all.

    PRIVATISE THE NHS and Privatise the DWP

  5. /Thumbs up/
    It is like they are trying to tank the healthcare system. The past 2 years — it was the thing to bang pots on a Thursday 8pm. The amount of pharmacys closing down in England is quite wild, this was on the news a fortnight ago. Well done TRNN.

  6. I support skilled people earning a proportionate wage to their efforts, the truth is that lots of professions are long hours and dedicated graft day after day , life is hard so just see that this struggle is across the board ,, the mis management is in every sector , i do support you nhs people but see that all of society is up against it ,, just look at the refuse collection sector all on agency no sick pay filth and bodily degradation , youre conditions are very highly protected ,,some of you may find you are spoiled actually

  7. I know for me as a nurse in the US, money and pay wasn’t the issue. It was the sheer amount of physical mental and emotional labor I was expected to give every single shift and then the guilt tripping for not picking up extra shifts. All the money in the world can’t buy a single human the physical energy needed to do the job of 3 people. Staffing conditions even prior to COVID should have been illegal. Staffing conditions at this point are point blank physically impossible regardless of how much money you throw at a person every shift. At this point nobody should expect even “decent” healthcare because it’s truthfully never been set up to be that way. If in this day and age you do receive individualized, compassionate healthcare consider it a blessing from God honestly

  8. Governments need to first care for their citizens. Feb 23, 2023: How much money has the UK spent on defence for Ukraine? The UK provided £2.3 billion in military support to Ukraine in 2022 and has already committed the same level of military support in 2023, totalling £4.6 billion over both years.

  9. The origins of this is Maidstone, Kent & the UK's Banking Lodge in Maidstone. A deal was struck in the early 1990s as part of the 1996 Chillenden Murders forward planning to give the NHS to US & South African businesses to make a profit from

  10. They have an endless amount of money for endless wars, but none for doctors and nurses, humanity has lost the plot. The corruption in our politics is rife , we need a change to our political system for the betterment of everyone in our society.
