@JamesTarget03@The_TUC And i bet if you get seriously unwell and call an ambulance you'd like one to arrive promptly, take u to ED, have u triaged and find u a bed on a ward asap?????
@GMB@DrAmirKhanGP I've been working between 45- nearly 60hr weeks since returning from maternity leave in Aug on nurse bank yet now, as of next week...no role for me. I had shifts booked until Feb, all cancelled, never been so worried for my family

@jofwise Parity of esteem, if its an emergency there's emergency services. Theres mh nurses who now work in 999 control rooms, in 999 vehicles and have been in ED for years, I know because its me. Only 1 service can get to u in an emergency, the emergency services
@thismorning how do you think we, as mh practitioners feel, working as hard as we ever had yet being constantly told our services aren't good enough, its soul destroying!!
