Regarding your article about the NHS deficit, one way to solve it is to
get rid of all the managers in all departments, which will not be
popular!
As it is, they are the bugbear of the NHS. They are the ones that have
reduced the basic staffing levels and pay, whilst they lord it up. We never see
their side being cut up.
Get back to the basic of nursing and let the matrons and sisters do the
management off the hospital, the nurses doing basic running of the wards and the
rest to the doctors and surgeons for administering, with a few secretaries for
appointments, bookings etc. We don’t need managers or under-managers to manage
every section of the NHS.
My sister, who is now 70, would say the same thing, having been a sister
of a ward at a very young age.
