Dan is my friend. He is an overseas nurse in the UK from Kenya. He works in one of the Trusts where a strike is due next year by the @theRCN should the negotiations with @RishiSunak and his government hit another snag. I have just been on the phone with him and Dan is resigning
For context, this is a nurse the NHS has invested a few thousand pounds to train in various surgical specialties. But Dan has had enough. He has had another maddening shift today. He had 12 patients in the surgical assessment unit
His shift started at 7.30am. One patient had Necrotizing fascitis. Another had acute bowel obstruction. There was a ruptured appendix among other various surgical emergencies. He was supposed to care for 12 patients with only one nursing support worker who went home at midday
