Save our NHS before it's too late!

STAND UP & BE COUNTED OVER NHS! SIGN THE PETITION NOW..BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

I wrote an article 20yrs ago ..which was printed in the Evening Times -Glasgow..
with regards to the state of the NHS. Nothing seems to have changed! If anything it's worse than ever!! Basically, I was saying that nurses were over-worked, underpaid, under-staffed while the so called 'Fat Cats' balanced the books ie tried to run the NHS as a business , forgetting about the needs of the patients & all staff concerned with their welfare.

I organised a written petition & circulated it all over Glasgow with the intent to send it to Mr Major at 10 Downing Street. Sadly, it never came to fruition as it was all leg work back then. Now we have instantaneous links with social media etc therefore we can make things happen & get results immediately.

Please sign the petition to save our NHS before it's too late! After all,
it's for the benefit of us, our children & our children's children!

The article I wrote was published in the Evening Times (Glasgow) in the column -First Person (for use by the general public to express their views on any topic)
The date of publication was Thursday, August 31st.1995 by Jean Leitch, Medical supplies Manager -Titled- Stand up and be counted over NHS.
20yrs later nothing's changed!As I said..f anything things are worse!

I qualified as a nurse in 1974 (nursed for 13yrs) & continued to be connected for over 20 yrs with the NHS.

I wrote the above mentioned article because I saw the unrest between doctors & nurses. They were in a ridiculous situation so I felt the need to put my thought in writing. AGAIN PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION....TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Thank you for your time in this matter.

Jean Douglas (formerly Leitch)
