Re: Another NHS cutback by the back door?
I'm sure that we have had memos round at work for the last few years stating that there is a munufacturing problem with flu vaccine, so this is not the first time.
It is disgusting that student nurses and midwives cannot find work within their own localities. Some of our student midwives have managed to find jobs and some haven't. Out of the last intake of students one of them could only find a job in London, her husband and children live in the Preston area and she comes home on her days off. This is clearly an unacceptable living situation and nobody should have to move so far away from their families in order to work. It's not as if nursing and midwifery are so specialised that there is no call for local services, we are always desperate for staff locally but have no money to employ them. The government would rather waste money on useless reforms and bureaucracies than actual patient care.
