coventrygull, we already have a free, point of need, health service. You highlight the problem with retention, there is one simple fact that should be considered, a vast percentage of those currently employed in the NHS are within 5 years of retirement. Unless you want to retain staff beyond their retirement dates and be tended upon by doctors and nurses in bath chairs then I agree this needs urgent attention. Unfortunately there are insufficient people entering a profession, which many see as second rate, to make up the difference. The simple fact is that with an ageing population the NHS will only be kept afloat by recruitment from overseas.

Firstly there are concerns that the health service will not be free for much longer. Secondly why are newly qualified nurses unable to get jobs

[p]Not if we hire them all over here first.
[p]This, rather than expanding medical education, and breaking the AMA's stranglehold on growth in the profession, is how the US healthcare 'system'jester plans to cope with an aging population
[p]By my projection, in 2040, there will be exaclty seven-point-three American nurses in the entire health care system. Not that the foreign nurses aren't most of them crackerjack, but they're being imported because they're cheaper, period, than training locals and paying them decently.

It would be brilliant if we could hire them over here, instead of bringing in from overseas as we are often denying countries that cannot afford to lose medical staff of those very people they have trained.
Unfortunately there was a culture pervasive in the UK in the 80's and early 90's whereby public service was frowned upon, those working in the public sector were poorly paid and managed. It is the blip caused by this sentiment that is currently working its way through the system and will cause the problem.
I am not sure what you mean by the term crackerjack in relation to nursing staff, do they hand out pencils on the ward at 5 o'clock on a Friday?

And thats the point a Nationalist party would invest in the future of this country and not be looking for short term fixes and profits.
It is vital that we invest in the long term health of this country.
I also share your concerns that the developing world is being robbed of vital nursing staff that they can ill afford to lose
