Train drivers can do it, and yes some people may have to find alternatives, but if your NHS staff are willing to jeopardize patient safety, then it shows how desperate the need is for change.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While she acknowledges that the pay is better than being unpaid as a student, she feels that it is not fair considering the level of responsibility that nurses have. &#8220;I have lives in my hands every day and depending on the choices I make and the care I give, it could determine a patient&#8217;s future,&#8221; she said. &#8220;However, we only get paid about \u00a314 an hour, and my step-mum who used to work at Sainsbury\u2019s earned more than that.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maizie also stated that the NHS understaffing and poor working conditions for nurses are unacceptable and are affecting the quality of care for patients, with constant worries running through her mind every shift, &#8216;will there be enough staff?&#8217; &#8216;Will I have way too many patients?&#8217; &#8216;Will I get everything done?&#8217; The lack of staff simply means the care is crappy, and not person-centred.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Big crowds supporting <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/theRCN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@theRCN<\/a> nurses on strike at the NHS strike solidarity march in London <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TlYLSeewNa\">pic.twitter.com\/TlYLSeewNa<\/a><\/p>&mdash; People&#39;s Assembly (@pplsassembly) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pplsassembly\/status\/1615725814745546755?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 18, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This unpredictability is impacting nurses&#8217; mental health, with burnout a widespread concern for Maizie and the NHS workers she works with. Mazie stated that due to the bad working conditions and unfair wages, many people don\u2019t want to work for the NHS since there is no support or equality. Maizie expressed fear that if these difficulties were not addressed by the government, the NHS will be privatised because &#8220;it simply&nbsp;cannot run this way&nbsp;for much longer.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Mazie, better staffing, greater compensation, actual recognition for what nurses contribute, and worker incentives such as decreased gym memberships and lower prescription costs&nbsp;are required.
