800 fewer nurses as NHS refunds £2.2bn to Treasury
There is an unhappy juxtaposition of figures swirling around at the moment.
The first is that the Department of Health is expected to underspent against its 2012-13 expenditure limit by £2.2bn, and none
of that is to be carried over for future use. It will instead go back to the Treasury.
The second figure is in the NHS workforce survey which shows that last month the NHS lost 800 more nurses.
When the head of the NHS, Sir David Nicholson, announced the need for £20bn savings over a four year period it was promised
that these savings would be reinvested on issues such as integrating services and longer term efficiencies.

Hunt U-turn: more nurses are needed in the NHS
The NHS may have to recruit hundreds of extra nurses to improve standards of care in hospitals
, the Health Secretary conceded today.
Jeremy Hunt said a review of appropriate staffing levels by a new Chief
Inspector of Hospitals would almost certainly result in an increase in the number of nurses on hospital wards. "I wouldn't be
surprised if many more nurses are employed," Mr Hunt said.
Until now health chiefs have said that the reduction in nursing numbers was not
affecting patient care.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr Hunt refused to say if cutbacks in nursing staff and a dependence on unregulated healthcare
assistants had contributed to a decline in standards of care.
The Health Secretary was delivering the Government's response to the Francis Inquiry.
Wonder what number this item was on the `Risk Register`?

Hunt drops clause that puts NHS patients first.......once again tories talk the talk
but fail to act....
Jeremy Hunt has defied the central recommendation of the Mid Staffordshire inquiry
, that the rights of patients be formally enshrined at the heart of the NHS.
The redrafted constitution states that the health service will only 'aspire' to put patients first.
Robert Francis, the inquiry chairman, said that one of his top priorities was for the NHS
constitution to be rewritten, making it explicit that "patients are put first" and "everything
done by the NHS should be informed by this ethos".
He recommended that the Health Secretary also consider stipulating that NHS staff
"put patients before themselves".
But the redrafted constitution, quietly released last week, simply states that the
health service will only "aspire" to put patients first.

oh dear i hope that is just a poor choice of words and not the way things will be in future. i expect doctors to do more than aspire to treat people.
