I want to offer high praise for the
brilliant work and challenges that the NHS faces every day. I would gladly pay
more tax to help fund our beloved NHS knowing that when others or me needed
access to health care it would be provided.
The NHS is currently and always
under pressure. A rise in income would help fund the NHS. The problem is are
current tax isn't spent on the right things. It's not spent on healthcare or
education it's spent on weapons that we hope never get used.
NHS targets fail because they are
overwhelmed by patients who need medical help. Nursing staff and doctors went
into healthcare to help people. The service the NHS provides will deteriorate
if it's not funded and staffed correctly. This is especially true for mental
health services.
It's hard to improve standards and
spot the mentally vulnerability against all the cutbacks and slashing of public
spending in mental health services and social care.
All GP's can do is listen and refer.
Unfortunately without access to rapid help people suffering from mental illness
can demise quickly. People with depression or in the middle of a breakdown
can't wait a few months on a waiting list for counselling therapy and
treatment.
That delay can swallow people up
with are struggling in desperation and misery when they need relief and
professional diagnosis. There can't be replaced if they commit suicide while on
a waiting list.
