People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
Two hospitals that I visit:
1) my diabetic consultant goes in on a Sunday morning as A&e is overflowing and they need beds... So consultant goes in to discharge sick patients because they have relatives to look after them. Ones that are classified as healthy without relatives or someone to care for them upon discharge stay in because social services don't work weekends.
2) another hospital recruited 8 doctors from a foreign country on one day to start in A&E. They ALL left on the first day. They saw the CEO of the hospital, informed her and left. Due to the pressures they were put under.
Examples like this are nationwide.
There is a shortage of Consultants throughout the UK.
Patients are also going to A&E for drunkedness and stuff they could go to walk in centres for etc
The NHS is really struggling and goodness knows where the answers are going to come from...
