Because some of them have worked in the NHS since it was much better? In the 00s it was reasonably well paid.I don’t know if this is the right thread but I couldnt find a general NHS thread . I’d like to start off my saying I think NHS workers are SOOO underpaid for what they do and I really am thankful we don’t have a set up like for example America where it all comes down to insurance and a doc app costs £400,000 .
Anyway if anyone could explain to me because I can’t work out - why are they striking when it’s a known fact the NHS is failing and underpays everyone , this is not new news . I do get the idea of making noise around the situation for a change and I think they should get mass pay increases and improved budgets along with teachers and the other emergency services . I just can’t understand why people go for the jobs knowing what they are getting in too . It’s not like it’s really easy to get into these positions ,midwife’s have 3/4 years of uni to become an underpaid NHS worker . I don’t know I get it totally but I also just don’t get it . I realise everything I’ve wrote is a mass contradiction lol
The thought of more than one as bad as her makes the blood run cold!I wonder if you're registered in the surgery I work in cos this sounds familiar.
I can sense your tone with your question marks ? I’m not looking for an argument I’m looking to be educated . I don’t understand why people still bother with NHS jobs when the pay is shit and then complain about it. As I have said, They should all be paid thousands more than what they are on and I agree that creating noise around it I.e striking is the only was to get noticed but I just don’t get how people still train , apply for and take a low paid job like that .Because some of them have worked in the NHS since it was much better?

Because some of them have worked in the NHS since before Covid, when things were not as bad? Because the money issue affects the lower paid nurses but the higher paid nurses want to support their colleagues?
I wonder if some people get NHS jobs because they need a job. If these are the only vacancies, people will apply for them , rather than long term unemployment on benefits.I can sense your tone with your question marks ?

Perhaps they shouldn’t bother.I can sense your tone with your question marks ? I’m not looking for an argument I’m looking to be educated .

could you show me where I said things can’t change? Stop trying to read between the lines and read what I actually wrote. I never said don’t bother striking and I never said they don’t deserve a pay rise and bigger budgets . What I said was why are they striking and why are people still going into these jobs. So funny no one can have an opinion or question the the NHS striking but we can have a whole thread on NHS staff good paid and bad paid that are total an utter wankers to patients LOLSPerhaps they shouldn’t bother.
I find it bizarre that you don’t think things can change.
And I already answered your question as to why people go into these jobs, and why they might go into them and strike at a later date, because things change.could you show me where I said things can’t change?

But you find it bizarre that I think things can’t change? k beb …. Maybe have a nap and read posts before you respond to them . Peace and Love I really hope the NHS gets a massive pay increase for all the underpaid and over worked staff and my gas bill goes back down to £40 a month and my council tax doesn’t go up in AprilAnd I already answered your question as to why people go into these jobs, and why they might go into them and strike at a later date, because things change.
So no, I can’t show you where you said “things can’t change” but I can show you where I said things can change and you repeated your question as to why people take these jobs. Perhaps you could read a NMC or RCN or a trade union website to understand real peoples reasons for wanting to enter nursing.
Why do I need a nap? is that aimed at my disability? Low.But you find it bizarre that I think things can’t change? k beb …. Maybe have a nap and read posts before you respond to them .

Since this an anonymous posting website how in fuck would I know you have a disability. Should I also know your shoe size ? Or don’t you have any feetWhy do I need a nap? is that aimed at my disability? Low.
I do think the model of we will post you a date and time for an appointment and that's what you've got is very antiquated. If you call to change it because it isn't convenient you are made to feel like shit and then given one 3 months later than the one you were posted a day before.I do however also think some patients treat the NHS like its BUPA. Trying to dictate appointment times that suit them. They don't understand certain clinics only operate on certain days so no you can't have your app on a Tuesday instead of a Thursday. We try to be as accommodating as possible but some people are down right rude when we don't bend over backwards for them.
Because they want to be a dr/nurse/hca etc and the NHS unlike the private sector offers job security(!) and a stable income. The staff working there know how much the government is underfunding the NHS. The NHS when properly funded would be an amazing place to work. To me it's not a strike over pay it's more over working conditions and how the NHS isn't fit for purpose. It's not as safe as it could be (one example agency staff being used instead of regular staff) and it just needs a complete overhaul. Staff are going to work knowing they are going to be doing the job of 3 people. Every day. It's mentally and physically draining and staff are going on sick with mental health issues as a result of everything.I can sense your tone with your question marks ?

Well thank god for that trainee doctor who pushed for the MRI, it picked something up and I had to have major surgery, the recovery has been slow it will take about a year to recover but if it hadn’t been for him I would be deadI filled an online questionnaire at my GPs
He rang me the next day
last weekend I had an MRI scan, everyone was so kind at the hospital, everything was explained and their attentiveness was fantastic, before and since my GP has rang once a week to see how I am and frankly I'm amazed, just waiting to see what course of action they are going to take
I did think it would take months but the whole experience from filing in an online patient form to Medication, blood tests and scan has been four/five weeks
