The NHS and UK healthcare is in crisis mode - whether it’s waiting for A&E, an ambulance or a bed in a hospital - millions of patients are being left untreated. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
The numbers waiting for hospital services have risen to a record high and with Christmas around the corner there are fears this could be the worst ever - even before winter had hit, many hospitals were running out of beds.
2022 has seen ambulances queuing for hours outside hospitals, waiting lists passed seven million people, and demoralised staff are leaving en masse.
NHS Nurses voted to strike for the first time in their history and will be joined by thousands of other colleagues when they do.
We look at the problems facing the NHS and reveal the true scale of the issues in UK healthcare.
Can the NHS get through what could be its toughest winter ever?

It's an old trick... 1) underfund a public service. 2) it ceases to work correctly 3) It's easy to justify privatizing it and all your mates get rich. The Tories love playing this game.

1-Stop mass immigration, the country is being sunk. It’s not a case of racism, just pure numbers. My Jamaica mother agrees! 2-Only let nurses and doctors move here, or anyone earning £30K + no spongers! 3-Train more nurses, make training free and increase pay to make it more appealing. Nurses shouldn’t need a degree to wipe bottoms either. It’s a mainly practical job, let them train and get paid on the job. 3-Stop giving benefits to immigrants, they just come here to live free and milk the left wing system. 4-Charge people to use the NHS if they have lived here for less than 5 years, or have no NHS number. This may sound harsh, but it’s the reality. Can anyone explain to me the benefits of allowing mass movement of poverty stricken, low skilled people into the country?

I'm a German A&E worker and I can tell you that we have massive problems, too. I often work 240 hours a month and it is a nightmare to find a bed for a patient fever or diarhea. (Normal beds are already pretty rare, but isolation rooms are really a problem) However, this is nowhere near the problems the NHS is facing. For example, the 18 minute target (Video minute 2:04) is almost the same in Germany (15 minute target) but it is the maximum amount of time an ambulance is allowed to need to get even into the rural areas. If this limit is breached, the person who is responsible for the logistics has to justufy the incident. Whe have a special part in our protocol for this reason. (This almost exclusively happens when there is either a mass incident or you have to get across the railway). The additional cost to the care system from unnecessary harm must be huge. (not to mention the human tradegy) I hope the british can surpass party politics in this area and fix the problems.

A friend of mine had a mild stroke 2 months ago. A have basic first aid training, and it had been drummed into me that in the case of stroke victims, every second counts. I did what I was trained to do, and called an emergency ambulance. After repeatedly desperate phone calls, the ambulance arrived EIGHT HOURS LATER. They were, I was told, very busy that night. Sadly, my friend failed to recover, and passed away a few days ago from what was described as an "unrelated heart condition". I do not blame the paramedics, they can only perform according to the size of the workforce, and funding provided to the service. Guess why paramedics are leaving in their droves? This to me is not an argument amongst politicians, or an ideological issue. It is quite simply corporate manslaughter. If Sunak was a CEO, he would be looking at a lengthy prison sentence.

My wife's a nurse so I know first hand what's going on and how hard all the staff work. It blows my mind that the NHS hasn't been funded or staffed properly to keep with demand and a growing/ageing population! The staff should be paid and treated better to retain and encourage people to join the NHS. More staff means less stress and workload on current staff, meaning fewer sick days and a more productive/happy workforce. The torys are a disgrace and should be ashamed of all the years of underfunding and cuts.

My wifes a ward manager after qualifying back in 2012, and I work in the NHS (patient flow) as well (thankfully a different hospital though ha). You're right, we probably get the same complaints, but I think the aging population factor combined with a low birthrate is a bigger factor than people think. Being morbid we kinda shot ourselves in the foot being that good at keeping people ticking, but often the best outcome is just getting them back to baseline, when that baseline level wasn't good enough to keep them out of hospital to begin with, if that makes sense. It's a vicious circle. The amount of patients that come in at 85-90+ with multiple admissions in just a few weeks for things like ''off legs'' or ''falls'', to the point they're essentially regulars is crazy, and it only seems to be getting worse, not better. It's obvious that this was going to happen. I also think Obesity is a big factor, no pun intended. I wonder if any statistics exist on the % of admissions that either fit the ''elderly and probably going to deteriorate no matter what" category, along with "Obesity" and "Drug and Alcohol" related admissions. I almost wouldn't want to see that.

recently had my partner in hospital with pneumonia after having a c-section and catching every cold and flu since (then covid in hospital *face palm*) and now our little girl is in and I can honestly say this does not surprise me, there seems to be so much waisted resource and duplication and time waisted at the moment. For example my partner is a nightmare to get blood from or put a canula in and she tells every nurse that tries but they will still try to take blood from her arm 8 years and they all fail, so they waste the canula then have to mess about getting a butterfly clip wasting resource and time. Then the Dr said she was clear to be discharged but when it come to the nurses sorting her to leave they were like we need to take more bloods and do an ECG this meant she stayed in another night, next day bloods and ECG done and Dr was like why are you still here I said you could leave yesterday I didn't order an ECG or bloods they aren't even on your notes. turns out that day 5 people in same bay got discharged I'm guessing they wanted to do them all together :/ Edit: actual just started watching the video and its Rotherham we were at no surprise at all then!!!

Not in the UK myself but I’ve heard stories of people calling an ambulance for really basic things like a child having a chest cold or feeling lightheaded. An ambulance is meant for EMERGENCIES where immediate stabilizing care is needed as part of a transition to hospital care. People seem to use it as an at home GP visit! They ought to fine people for BS ambulance calls. That would cut way down on wait times for ambulances in an emergency. And bring some extra $ in for the NHS as well. Also if you have 132,000 open positions why aren’t they incentivizing people to go into medicine? Offer to pay a portion of their tuition if they graduate and work for the NHS for say 5 years or something. I bet there’s a lot of people out there who would take the government up on that.

Massive problem is litigation, nearly a quarter of the NHS budget is taken up paying out in claims and legal fees, which are absolutely scandalous! Being public money it's also open to a lot of malpractice and corruption, claims should be taken out of the hands of these greedy solicitor firms and handled internally by a government run body. I bet the NHS would literally save billions of pounds a year if this were done, money that could offset some of the cutbacks it's had over the recent years!

@@monal3650 Sounds pretty bad! I'm not trying to belittle anyone's experience or right to compensation. However there's a major problem with the way claims work against the NHS. Firstly, if you had made a claim yourself it would be unlikely that nurse would have penalised personally, perhaps a dressing down from her bosses, but it's very unlikely she'd have lost her job. Secondly, the claim system is little more than a racket to line lawyers/solicitors pockets, that includes the defendants legal representatives which in the case of the NHS is contracted legal department! It's in their interest that people do come forward and make claims, this is why hospitals are plastered with posters and other advertisement asking you if you've had an accident! It's big business, and because it's public money it doesn't really matter that there's no real accountability, only if becomes a criminal case does it draw any attention, civil claims for malpractice or incompetence very often don't even get a proper judicial review, as they are more often than not settled out of court. This means the value of the claim is decided by the solicitors, but normally it has to be worth at least £10k to get it into the fast track. Also there's no cap on legal fees, and this is where the problem lies, the system is completely open to fraudulent activity, there is no oversight, solicitors have a free hand to set whatever pricing they feel they can get away with! This is why I say the process of making a claim against the NHS should be taken out of the hands of the legal firms and solicitors! There's a high level of corruption within these legal departments, it needs a different approach. In fact you could say this for almost all aspects of the litigation industry.

@@monal3650 To answer your question. Basically it's because the legal departments within the NHS are just like any other legal firm, they thrive on there being claims, more the merrier in fact. The more work there is, the better the chances of increased pay and more opportunities there are to network amongst their own kind, even if that's to the detriment of the client they're supposed to be defending. It's just like insurance companies, they need claims to warrant their own existence. Another issue is that solicitors on either side are pretty much unaccountable for their corrupt practices, they are supposedly governed by the SRA (Solicitors Regulatory Authority). But in practice there's very little action ever taken against solicitors who get caught out breaking the rules, usually as there's "lack of evidence" to action a reprimand. The whole system is totally corrupt and geared towards swindling money out of people, and if that's public money all the better! To give you an idea how lucrative this is, there are big legal firms coming over from the USA who now specialise in suing the NHS! We need to stop this racket now! It's destroying our health service, the forecast is within another couple of years the NHS will be spending a third of its budget paying out claims and legal fees! If this continues it will be unsustainable and the NHS will no longer be a free service.

The paramedics determined that I was delirious because I hadn't urinated for quite some time. They took me to A&E where I was admitted quite quickly. I must have been lucky. I had a long wait to see to see the admissions doctor and an even longer wait in a side room for a bed to become available.

As an American, I hope all of you in the UK get the System you need though you will have to fight for it. I would look towards Japan and Switzerland for effective public/private system that function much better. The fully private system in the US is horrendously expensive. We actually have very few GPs, usually a 6 week appointment wait and about $150 per visit. Hospital stays are faster but it cost 2k just to walk-in and around 10k a day. A normal birth can easily cost 30k in the US. We actually have worse access to specialist doctors, such as dermatologist and oncologist with 9+ month waiting times and easily 1k per visit.

Even with only half their income tax rebated, for tens of millions of people this offer would be a no brainer.

The NHS is one of the 10 largest employers in the world: it's almost as large as the Chinese army. Lack of resources in certain areas is a management problem. They need to lay off all the extra consultants, middle managers and bureaucrats. Use the money saved to boost pay for nurses and when the job pays enough, more people will take up a career in nursing.

nurses get good pay, that is already known. U have been lied to. U can find out their actual pay. & yes, consultants etc. get too much money. it is an unfair system. so many people want to even get a job... just to have some money coming in means a lot.

People who have wealth should not use the NHS. This can free up the workload. Those in category B should pay 50% of the charges and only those in Categories C & D to pay nothing.

I don’t mind paying some of the fees for a decent AandE service. I wish they had AandE covered by medical insurance…. I think those who are on social welfare shouldn’t pay but those who can afford to pay should pay or get covered by some insurance plan.. what matters is some health security

The NHS got to start taking money from the people who can pay. I had a massive operation in London and stayed in a hospital for 2 weeks. In addition to that, months' aftercare, examinations and medicine. Yes, of course no charge. I was of course grateful to them at the same time felt sorry for the staff.

@@monal3650 Yeah but obviously not enough? In my country we pay the pasic monthly fee for the medical insurance according to the household income and 30% for the treatment each time you see a doctor. 10% for pentioners. Still not enough but don't have to wait a year for a heart surgery.

Lucky YOU. I know of someone who worked full-time for minimum wage only for 50 years until his retirement and paid thousands and thousands of pounds in NI contributions as well as Poll and Council Taxes, as well as being taxed on his state pension and private pension and when he needed help from the NHS for the first time at the end of last Year after collapsing with a stroke in his home during the Tory PLAN-demic, the treatment he received by these so-called Medical Nurses and Doctors as well as Carers was Deplorable. They are SCUM!

Sadly the NHS will probably be privatised, some say it’s too many pen pushers and bad management, some say it’s sheer population growth. It’s a stressful job with little reward. Let’s hope and pray it stays as the NHS and not go down the American line.

There needs to be a two category 999 service. One for physical trauma and one for mental health crises. The police seem to spend a lot of time dealing with mental health incidents, which should have a dedicated team of mental health experts.. The amount of time spent by both ambulance and police on this is ridiculous. The same with drunks, a safe place to sober up. The same with drugged up people.

How much of the money put into the NHS gets syphoned off to private companies. I had to go in for a small operation, ended up in a private hospital. Probably cost twice as much as it should.

It's true that there's a lot of waste in the NHS. However, it is still true that the NHS is massively underfunded. Average person simply doesn't understand the pressures the NHS is under due to the ageing of the population and understaffing. The public usually complain about the service they get but a lot of those same people would never want to take those jobs in the first place if they saw how much they're going to get for the years of effort to become a clinician. So there's a lot of irony in all of this.

The NHS Going I've walked these corridors, once so bright Where doctors worked, and nurses held the night But now the wards are empty, cold and grey The machines beeps silent, gone away The consultation rooms, where hopes were spun Now stand as relics, one by one The doctor's chair, where once we'd sit Now gathers dust, and medical grit The waiting rooms, where patients used to wait For news of diagnosis, or a date For treatment's start, or an uncertain fate Now lie unused, a faded state The nurses' stations, where kind hands did move Now idle sit, with no one to improve The phones that rang with calls from far and wide Now hang mute, with no one to abide The hospital's heart, that once did beat Now falters slow, its pulse retreats to defeat The NHS goes, a dying art A memory fades, a piece of human heart The skills that once did heal and mend Are lost now, as the jobs do end The trust that once did bind us strong Is broken now, and does not belong
