If you work in a nurse agency or if you currently work with a nursing recruitment agency then you will know that right now, there is a dire situation regarding beds. Even those who work with carers and who are seeking care jobs know about it. The Deputy Director for nursing has come out to say that there are in fact some challenges that are being faced right now and that more has to be done to try and address them. Kate Pye who has spoken out at the conference has said that her team do have some priorities and that the state of healthcare has to be looked at in a much broader sense. At the end of the day, it doesn’t take much to tip the service over the edge. The event is being run by Roald Dahls Charity and they bring together children and young nurses who have positions that are being sponsored by the charity. Ms Pye has come out to say that right now, there is a strong increase in demand and that young people’s nursing services really are in need of more support. Children who have complex needs have doubled and there is also an increase in children who need disabled care too. Ms. Pye has also come out to say that the number of mental health admissions is on the rise. This is especially the case when you look at people who are aged between 17 and 19. This has a huge impact on the workforce as you have people who are self-referring and you also have an increase in child mortality which is not good to say the least. More has to be done here to make sure that people get the help they need.
