Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare
Health Service Reform: Representatives of Health Sector Workforce
9:00 am
Mr. David Hughes:
At the moment, the poor work environment is crucifying those in it and driving many out. It is appalling in terms of the workload, pressure and inability to control the numbers who come at the service. The nurse, midwife and care assistant working with them are the ones who take all of that. It keeps on coming. It is an appallingly bad workplace and many who look at it externally will not go into it. They ask why they would go from their workplace to this one.
