the main i problem the nhs faces is a staffing.be more likely to keep the staff. we have a problem with keeping the staff, we haven't trained the right number of nurses and doctors, but it turns out that keeping them is even more of a priority than training them, so all of these things fit together. giving people proper equipment, digital equipment, computers, environments which are nice, staff facilities which help support them, a good environment for patients so it is pleasant to do your work... these things are all interrelated, and am the whole approach don't like this predates this government, to be honest. the british treasury, her majesty's treasury is very tall —— short term in its outlook, it doesn't really seem to think strategically in a way that ministries are finding other european countries, so we have not just underinvested it to —— underinvested in our building, but we have also underinvested in staff, dynastic —— diagnostic technology, the system is required in health care, it is not a happy story. we are falling b

the other main driver is what's going on in nhs hospitals. on the waiting list for a routine operation in england — that's one in nine of the entire population — with other parts of the uk under similar pressure. the biggest rise we're seeing is in the poorest households, and they're quite often having to take out loans, they might be crowdfunding the money to be able to pay for that private treatment, so it can be a really difficult choice for those families. 0h. i can't live with this pain. this time last year, brenda was struggling. she was filmed for the bbc, waiting for surgery for severe osteoarthritis. i can't carry on like this. my life just isn't worth living, quite frankly. l this is the difference that surgery can make. brenda's now back on her feet after a private operation in february — but that only came about after a complete stranger saw her on television and paid for one of her hips to be replaced. her reaction to that? i burst into tears. the next day, the money- was in my account, ready to go. then, last month, a sudden can

given the disastrous state he is leaving the nhs in, why is he still in downing street?norable gentleman talks about staffing levels -- the nhs now has a record number of people working in it, with 10,900 more nurses this year than there were last year and 6,000 more doctors. too often, i am afraid, it is impossible because a proportion of the patients sadly are in delayed discharge and that is making life very difficult for the ambulances as they come up to hospital. that is why it is so crucial that this government, in addition to everything else we have done, are fixing social care and helping patients out of hospital. that is why we put in the £39 billion, which unfortunately his party voted against. speaker: [calls name] >> thank you, mr. speaker. i thank the prime minister for all he has done to help to level up stoke-on-trent. the number of workless households in our city has halved over the past decade of conservatives in government. does he agree that the best way to level up stoke, on, trent is to get more people in well, -skilled employment , better employment

next two years will be tougher for the nhs than the worst times during the pandemic.ll around. it's not nearly as deadly as it was before because of vaccines and drugs, but the nhs has to cope with that, but also get on with all those routine operations, treatments and procedures, which were postponed or cancelled in the first wave. so it's being expected to do all of that, and scenes in a&e, and amongst ambulances waiting outside hospitals, unable to transfer patients, are really quite extraordinary for the summer. you do occasionally see this sort of thing in winter, but the fact it's happening in summer suggests a real combination of pressure and real challenges. so, is it on the edge? it's very much on the edge. but the nhs has been on the edge before in a really bad flu winter and all the pressures of winter. you do see hospitals very full and the sort of safety valve is to cancel routine operations and to stand down anything that is not an emergency, which, of course, happened in the early months of the pandemic. but the problem with doing that this time is you'

faced with a long wait for an nhs operation, katie, who lives in southampton, felt she had no optionave been me pretty much bedbound or sofa—bound for two years. there's been a sharp rise in the number of people self—paying, though some operations were put back during the worst of the pandemic. according to the private health care information network, which has supplied the latest figures, there have been increases in self—pay over the last two years across the uk. the biggest have been seen in wales, scotland and, in england, the east midlands. 0ne nhs leader remembers long waiting lists in the 1990s, when more patients stretched their budgets to go private. he's worried it's happening again. they can't afford to pay for private treatment easily. many people will be mortgaging their houses or using their life savings, and these are the very people that the nhs should really be there to help the most. 1/32nd scale... neil, who's a keen modeller, faces a long wait for a hip replacement, and he can't go on the walks he used to enjoy. i've learnt to live with the pain. it is what it is.

the other main driver is what's going on in nhs hospitals. — that's one in nine of the entire population — with other parts of the uk under similar pressure. the biggest rise we're seeing is in the poorest households, and they're quite often having to take out loans, they might be crowdfunding the money to be able to pay for that private treatment, so it can be a really difficult choice for those families. 0h. i can't live with this pain. this time last year, brenda was struggling. she was filmed for the bbc, waiting for surgery for severe osteoarthritis. i can't carry on like this. my life just isn't worth living, quite frankly. l this is the difference that surgery can make. brenda's now back on her feet after a private operation in february — but that only came about after a complete stranger saw her on television and paid for one of her hips to be replaced. her reaction to that? i burst into tears. the next day, the money- was in my account, ready to go. then, last month, a sudden cancellation meant brenda had her second hip replaced — th
