And at the end of the day - it's not just nurses and medical staff that need to worry...it's anyone who interacts with the NHS. We are directly affected by staffing shortages.
If nurses accept a below-inflation pay rise, they're going to encounter recruitment issues. Nurses don't enter the profession to make a fortune but at the same time they need to put food on the table. We can't continue to haemorrhage staff to the private sector.

There are others far more deserving of huge pay rises!

snackrite would you give them whatever they want? 19%? What if they still had shortages and wanted another 19% next year? Whose going to pay for it. And then 19% will become the normal target for strikers in public sector (not in private sector as employers cant afford it normally and say 4% take it or leave it the doors open)

The NHS is going down the toilet. The service from GPs, A&E, in-patients and out-patients is declining so badly that it could become totally unfit for purpose in the near future (it's partly there already).
What is the answer to this? I don't know ... maybe we don't want an NHS? If we do, I don't think the solution is to pay people less and ask them to work harder.

Things don't seem to be much better with Social Services care sector either. We've spent 5+ years dealing with social care and there has been a noticeable drop in quality of service.
"Reablement is a type of care that helps you relearn how to do daily activities, like cooking meals and washing. Most people who receive this type of care do so for around 1 or 2 weeks, although you get free, short-term care for a maximum of 6 weeks. It will depend on how soon you are able to cope at home."
Over 90% of clients that are cared for by Reablement, in my area, are people with long term health problems that require care for a lot longer than 6 weeks. If Reablement as using the resources to look at people such as my partner, who looks after the people that Reablement was designed for in the first place?
I wonder what impact the issues with nursing is causing on the system with regard to care at home?

We have been shown the pay ranges. It's difficult to believe anyone on them genuinely needs to use a foodbank.
I can understand a argument that more staff is needed; but I see no justification for pay issues. For sure they haven't done as well over recent years as some, but whether this shows lack of appreciation now, or overgenerosity in the past, just depends on which year you chose as your baseline when comparing different occupations.
It's a caring occupation, they don't tend to give you wealth beyonds your dreams, they are modestly paid and you go into them knowing that.

Sensible post OG. I do agree with all you say. Expectations now are far to high. The country is in crisis. There has been far too much doled out by the government.
I know I sound like a moaning old lady, (which I am and admit to), but the present generation just can't cope with having to tighten up their finances. They have had it too good for too long and too much government help.

When you said too much has been doled out by this government

YOUR MONEY, THEIR PRIORITIES
Test and Trace £37billion
Bounce back scheme failure £17billion
MoD wasting £13billion
Defective PPE £10billion
Rishi Sunak fraud £4.3billion
DoH irregular spending £1.3billion
Fraud and error from grants £1 billion
'Eat Out, Help Out' failure £850million
Aborted Nightingale hospitals £532million
Wasted PPE contracts £437 million
Unused Covid vaccines £250million
Starter home scheme £250million
A yacht £200million
Defective face masks £150million
A single Tory council wasting £125million
Wasted ferry contracts £50million
Serco payments £50million per month
Press room £2.6million
Subsidising Tesla cars £1.2million per week
Private polling £580k
ONE Australia return flight £500k
Transporting files in cars £500k
Photographers £100k
Downing Street flat £50k
Private club dinners £1k
And all of that was before Kwasimodo kicked a £30 billion hole in the economy overnight.
Looks to me like they can find the money when they really want to.
