SOS NHS

My prescription is now in its second month of waiting. This is something the Doctor said I must take for a year to prevent a recurrence. Also, advised to avoid stress. He clearly didn't try ringing his surgery and practice. The NHS app is great. All services disabled for the practice. That's just me.

If I started about my family, you'd see why we're crippling the NHS. It's us. Not the politicians or mismanagement. We're to blame. We've had it good and the it aged. We set our expectations too high. I'd genuinely pay double or treble national insurance rates to help the NHS get back to stability. Many others would or won't, but it needs a drastic boost. This government are happy to let it flounder on the rocks. They'll blame everyone but themselves.

So, I apologise for being born in a public hospital and having a loving family use a system that was there to improve living conditions and support the people throughout their daily lives. Good old social care has done wonders. It's amazing. It's also amazing it is still writhing around like a broken animal. The power of those who work for the people has saved the NHS to this day. How much fight and will do they have? Keep going.

To quote Sir W.C., "Keep buggering on. K.B.O." If you don't do it, who will?
 
I nearly wrote 'I find it amazing ' that we do not have a workforce plan; apparently we are getting one in April, but, of course it isn't amazing at all, just part of the privatisation plan. It is not like we didn't know that the country is getting older, that is one of the reasons we have a census. Us 'baby boomers' just suddenly appeared. 100k+ hospital staff short, same number or more care workers and anyone know if there any NHS dentists left anywhere in the country?

I had to re-read that.

I originally read that as 12-hour wait for a hospital bed, and I was going to say that I know that's bollocks because I reckon there were more than 17 occasions in the one A&E dept. I worked at on its own.

It's actually a 12 hour wait on arrival, presumably by ambulance, just to get a bed in A&E.


Either way it's scandalous.
