There are lots of stories in the paper about how the Garling reports recommendations are going. It comes down to the admin saying all good, the clinicians saying all we got (awful) pictures on the wall of NUMs (where are graffetists when you want them) and name badges. The funnist thing we got was bed washers. Not strippers, or bedmakers they just wash we do the rest plus ring to get them to come So now we have to do 3 things instead of one plus wait for them to turn up plus they drown the bed so you are waiting for it to dry for ages. Someone sent an email to the in charge we never see about this she said we should be grateful for any help we get. Sheets that are big enough for the beds would be nice too or maybe fitted just joking.
Next we are getting some administration helper poor thing. They said in the paper that they havent funded computers or desks for them, no worries on past experience they wont be able to use them. Main talent seems to wandering aimlessly or staring vacantly apologies to the ward secretaries getting RSI on the job there are a few great ones.
Seems to be a policy of casual staffing going on not agency never been a viable agency here but a casual pool run by the health service. Lots of people say they prefer it as they feel it gives them more choice but it depends how much you need the money. I think the churn is even bigger thru we see people a lot then less and less, the novelty wears off. There is a kind of recycling going on a the moment old faces from years ago turning up but still hardly any next gen at all. Hardly training any midwives. Hardly any attention paid to experience mix or retraining. Latest is we have to do 20 education points a year to keep mid rego and another 20 to keep general but no funding or real info on it. I am hoping to be be the first person made redundant over loosing rego due to lack of pts. One can dream must do Wii fit.
