Everything they are doing to the NHS they did to British Rail.

Underfunded it, exhausted the service, got the public angry, and then said privatisation is the solution.

In December 2011, 4 patients waited more than 12h for a hospital bed after being admitted through A&E in England.

In December 2023, that number was 44,000

In January 2024, 54,000

Junior Dr - pay explained - yet again🤷🏻‍♂️

2008 - 24 tins for an hour’s work
2023 - 10 tins for an hour’s work

The Govt have increased pay to 11 tins/hour

They have now offered half a tin more🤷🏻‍♂️

Hopefully not controversial, but...
🚑 If an Acute Trust cannot control 12h ED delay, it cannot control ambulance handover delay - these two metrics are very tightly connected.

Dr Bella The question is whether Labour will continue what the Tories started. They seem keen.

The reality is that the UK can afford a properly funded NHS, but the Westminster parties have decided not to give us one.

Let's make it *the* election issue.

Invest in services that prevent admission

Often resources are funnelled into the wrong areas

Hi, ER Doc here.

RT if you’ve ever done CPR on someone and they survived.

Trying to prove something.

Toilet related harm !
Ratio of ED staff:toilets is a marker of concern for staff wellbeing!!

Would love to hear ratios from departments across the country!
