Why is the NHS under so much pressure?

The first minister pointed out that her budget was constrained by Westminster, but neglected to add that public spending per head wasin 2021/22, according to statistics endorsed by her own government.

Standing alongside Ms Sturgeon, and under even more pressure, was Health Secretary Humza Yousaf. Both the Conservatives and Labour continue to call for his resignation over the government's handling of the NHS crisis. Taking a step back though, is it time for a more fundamental reassessment of the state of health and social care in Scotland and the rest of the UK?

Wasn’t it under Labour’s watch most cottage Hospitals were closed, and sold off for a fast buck

Not enough beds, medically fit patients which can be discharged however they're awaiting packages of care or need an increase in their packages of care.

Purely because of the Covid scam. That is all. Look at the stats over the last 3 years. Crimes against humanity. It’s time for arrests.

50% of budget going to salaries

Very poor management.

If you need to ask that question you haven't been doing you're job.

I wonder 🤔 such a tough, tough question 🤡

Duh! Because Conservatives have under-funded it for 12+ years, spaffed away £billions on bogus PPE, & Brexit has lost UK 1000s of staff. ToryCostOfGreedCrisis NHSPrivatisation BrexitBrokeBritain

Too many people using it Not enough people paying into it Too many top managers with unnecessary high salaries Too many overpaid contractors Too many overpaid consultants …A simple but true evaluation

13yrs conservatives government.

Because it’s been consistently and deliberately starved of funds, recruitment has been deliberately made less attractive (30 grand in debt before you start your career, anyone?) causing a vicious circle of decline, with the goal of privatisation. Or a shorter answer, tories.

Simple. Government ignorance.

to many cheifs and not enough indians

How is productivity meant to be applied to nursing. Do the employer’s want individual nurses to literally speed up their work activities?

Wankers like this don't help....

This man tells us exactly what the problems have been and are. Make this man health Secretary.
