    Get the bureaucracy to do the paperwork. They sit on their backsides doing nothing

    Feel proud of an NHS, that takes the life blood out of you?

      They are not ‘complaints’ - they are legitimate concerns about a service that is stretched beyond breaking point. It’s about first and foremost, patient safety. Along side this, you have nursing staff (in a profession that requires at least degree level education) that require the services of food banks to survive, how does that sit right with anyone. The NHS has run on the good will of the ground floor workers, for at least the last decade. Overworked, overwhelmed and underpaid - is that the nurse that you would want to be providing a vital service, if god forbid you or yours needed care? I hope not. Have some compassion, and a modicum of insight, nurses are fighting for everyone, not just themselves!

      what sort of rumour is that?
      some paper found a nurse with poor life choices that's indebted out of her salary and now we have starving nurses?
      oh, for f. sake!
      can you tell us amount of £ this nurse gets for driving around and measuring blood sugar in, what, 5-6 places a day?
      can you tell it without feeling shame?

      @@ivok9846 just because that’s the only bit of her job that is shown, that clearly is not the sum total of her job, (do I really need to point this out)? And I happen to know that there are NHS nurses that require assistance, not because of poor choices, but because their wages have been static or under inflation for the last 2 decades. That would mean they have taken a pay cut in real terms year on year. Lastly, there are food drop off and collection points in my local hospital. Do you honestly think they are there for funsies, or is it perhaps because they’re required by some? The pat on the back that was given during a dangerous pandemic (we lost colleagues) is but a distant memory now, isn’t it? Platitudes are fine, but appropriate remuneration would be so much better!

      @@thissmittenkitten the minimum pay in your hospital?
      and it probably applies to cleaners, right?
      now, are they striking?
      how are they surviving?
      I don't think you can arrange it so that everyone is satisfied. but I bet your pay is twice that of nurse pay in many parts of Europe, while your living expenses are not twice that of those parts of Europe.
      so while I believe in misfortune of some, I doubt that applies to most of you in a way it would warrant a general strike.
      and I dunno why is NHS calling it "industrial" given that you're not industry.
      "industrial action".
