Nursing vacancies does not mean there have been cuts or underfunding. Why are there 43,000 Nursing Vacancies then? Vacancies mean that the money is there. The problem is finding the nurses. I think if you look around, most countries have the same problem. |

I didn't read it, but it is a fact that some countries have cut back on nurse training because it is easier to just employ a nurse from another country. |

Not if you start restricting entry into the country |

Hhhmmmm shame, he was a good poster.
He wanted a break from here and felt deletion was the best option. He did pop back as Eric2 just to confirm all is well (there was a thread in the main section) but thought he was spending too much time posting. He'll be back for the football, whenever that is.
OK, thanks for clarifying Stuart.

Is it correct that test kits are going to be available at a price from the likes of boots ,or did that option not get followed through. Great. So some f**kwit will stockpile 780 of them, while the rest of us wait for the panic to subside. i think there will be limits, Even better one also read a company in the uk producing test are selling most abroad as we don't have the testing facilities to test large amounts of tests. Thinking about it logically pathology labs are probably not on the radar for expanding, however i do hope that now these facilities will be expanded so when needed in future they can cope. |

I didn't read it, but it is a fact that some countries have cut back on nurse training because it is easier to just employ a nurse from another country. So you state that financial cut backs have not reduced nursing numbers then disagree with an article from a very reputable source that directly contradicts that despite not actually bothering to read it. Nothing changes in GC does it. |

Question on testing as it seems a hot potato.
If everyone in the NHS was tested today when would they have to be tested again as it's only a point in time test.
So is all the furore correct?
Surely the anti body test is the one we need.

Antibody tests will be crucial to enable a gradual return to work for all of us. You know, the sort of planned evidence based decision making we were promised. Ahem |

Ahem I agree So if your tested today do you test tomorrow and every day thereafter?. Or do you only test the moment you have any signs/symptoms by way of confirmation? . |

Ahem and walking around your wards carrying it asymptomatically. Lots of patients getting it in hospital - the very definition of high risk. |

So you state that financial cut backs have not reduced nursing numbers then disagree with an article from a very reputable source that directly contradicts that despite not actually bothering to read it. Nothing changes in GC does it. No Hugo. It is quite simple. A decision was taken by someone to reduce the amount of home trained nurses, with the reduced costs, and instead employ ready qualified nurses from abroad. Most countries have done the same with the result that there is a world wide shortage of nurses. When I spent a long time in hospital here in Germany I did not come across a single German nurse. They were all from abroad. This same thing has happened across many sectors in the UK and it is about time that more money was invested to train our own people, and not just in nursing. When there are that many vacancies in nursing it just shows that the money is there to employ them, otherwise there wouldn't be any vacancies would there! |

When there are that many vacancies in nursing it just shows that the money is there to employ them, otherwise there wouldn't be any vacancies would there! So they cut funding to get cheaper nurses? Then they cut funding for training new nurses. So now we dont have enough nurses that means they are clearly spending money on nurses? I have a vacancy for personal spaceship to take me to the moon. I haven't spent any money on building one or on training an astronaut but clearly I have the funds in place because I have a vacancy. |

Tories written off £13.4 billion of NHS debt, just like that... Who would have thought this a year ago?
