  1. Restoring #Britain’s #health to 2014 levels could add 2% to #GDP

    A paper by the Health Foundation #ThinkTank, published on Sunday, argues the nation’s health should be valued by policymakers as an #economic #asset.

    Restoring the deteriorating health of the #UK’s population to the level of 2014 would boost GDP by 2% and generate a £72bn dividend for the public finances, research suggests.

  3. Burnham urged to ditch dangerous #UK-US NHS #drug deal

    #Burnham urged to scrap the UK-US trade deal on #medicines as #health organisations and #doctors’ groups warn it is dangerous and prioritises #pharmaceutical company profits over the lives of #NHS #patients

  5. Tell your MP: take action & end NHS corridor care

    In #hospitals across the country, #NHS patients are being forced to wait for treatment in #corridors, waiting rooms, queuing #ambulances or even store cupboards.

    Corridor care poses huge risks to the #health of patients, as well as the #safety of NHS staff

    Thousands of preventable deaths are caused each year by long A&E waits before admission to a ward.

  9. I stand with #NHS midwives

    Across our NHS, #midwives are routinely working shifts without rest breaks.

    - Many are signed up to opt out of the #Working Time #Regulations, not freely, but because speaking up feels impossible.

    - #Clinical #errors linked to #fatigue are not rare #accidents, they are what happens when a system asks too much of too few people for too long.

  11. No, BlackRock: #OurNHS is not for sale

    #BlackRock, #US #multinational asset management firm, trying to buy up NHS #GP surgery buildings

    They just signed a deal with Greater #Manchester #Pension Fund (GMPF) to work together to increase the grip of privatisation on our NHS.

    But you can tell them now

    - OUR NHS IS NOT FOR SALE

    The deal has only just been announced. If you act now, you can stop it in its tracks.

  12. #Scottish #Labour would let controversial tech giant #Palantir “gain control of our #health #data”, an MP has told The National

    “But people must be under no illusions; if Labour were in Government in #Scotland, Palantir would gain control of our health data and Scottish patients would become beholden to their services as they further entrench their #monopoly on #NHS data management.”

  21. Scrap #NHS #hospital parking charges NOW!

    When we go to hospital, it’s rarely for something easy. But patients and their families are being immediately met with #fees just to #park their cars. And these charges are going up!

    The Government says it wants to help the British people through tough times. Well, ministers have a chance to show they mean it - by scrapping these charges now.

  23. Stop Replacing Our Doctors!

    Physician/anaesthesia assistants are employed more & more, many working beyond their scope. #Patients have #died due to #PAs working above their #competencies

    Trusts still advertising for PAs/AAs when role requires a doctor, many of whom face #unemployment

    Patients are confused by various ‘consultants’ who are NOT #medically qualified. They think they’re seeing a #doctor

    This should NOT be future of #OurNHS!

  25. One of Palantir’s founders is also openly against the NHS. Peter #Thiel claimed it “makes people sick” and said that the #British people love the NHS because we’re suffering from #StockholmSyndrome.

    We can’t let a company like this take control of our healthcare system.

    We demand no “Public Private Partnership” (PFI) to finance Neighbourhood Health Centres

    PFI's led to NHS paying up to 27x over for hospitals. Some #NHS Trusts STILL wasting 13% of their budgets on old PFI deals

    Even the #Conservative government said ‘goodbye to PFI’ because it is bad value for money.
