A Survey reveals 51% of people are unhappy with the healthcare service - and it's not restricted to just the public. Separate findings revealed almost 80% of NHS workers are considering quitting the service altogether.
Accident and emergency departments have seen a sharp increase in the percentage of dissatisfied respondents, with a record 40% saying they are unhappy, according to analysis by the Nuffield Trust and The King's Fund.
The results “should not be seen as a judgement of the efforts of frontline staff to recover services in the wake of the pandemic but rather, a sign that the NHS is not being given what it needs to fully deliver for its local communities”. The majority also said patients are experiencing medication errors, delays in procedures and compromised quality of care as a result.thousands of NHS staff are striking with demands for better pay and improved working conditionsAnabela De Barros, a recovery nurse working in London, told Sky News the pandemic left many NHS staff deeply traumatised.
"We've had Brexit, COVID and now the war in Ukraine has made the cost of living so high. We are just tired. We are exhausted. And it doesn't seem like it is going to get better any time soon." Despite the high levels of dissatisfaction with how services are operating, the public continues to show strong support for the principles underpinning the NHS.But more than eight in 10 believe there is a major or severe funding problem for the service.
