I have just had a knee replaced. Can we prioritise phone numbers that connect to humans, physiotherapy where the beds aren't broken & 24/7/365 hotlines for post operative support. Tech has is place in reducing admin but it won't replace systems with sufficiently resourced humans.

My experience as a cardiac patient has been that admin can be improved, the technology is actually pretty wonderful, and what’s lacking are people. My cardiac ward was never fully staffed and there was little continuity of care. I really wanted to see the same face for more than one day.

Reducing staff is absolutely a top priority of this government. Their ideal model for healthcare for us peasants is an algorithm that despenser tablets.

Given the retention, training & immigration numbers. Can understand why Labour is concerned about NHS staff numbers however, medicine is not about medication its about healing. Sometimes that means care from humans with the ability to be motivate & encourage. The elderly? Those that live alone? MH?
