I can’t think of any more simple models to explain the 50k nurses scenario
It is a lie
What is it you dont understand.
Johnson and his cabinet are liars, the Conservative campaign was full of dishonesty.
The country hased voted in a leader totally lacking in integrity to deliver a brexit which is not deliverable.
We can expect 5 years of lies and propaganda, if you support the lie about 50,000 nurses no doubt you will fully applaud the
You've completely lost me with that one.
Suffice to say, the tories have promised 50,000 more nurses than they have now. How they deliver that number is to some degree irrelevant to the pledge they've made.
I don't care if they've invented a nurse making machine that makes 50,000 new nurses. They have pledged to increase nurses by 50,000. That means they will have to pay 50,000 more nurse salaries.
If they can reduce the number of nurses that leave the NHS as part of their strategy to increase overall numbers, then great. That would mean less training costs.
If they can't improve the retention rate then they will have to recruit more. Either way, there will be 50,000 more nurses employed by the NHS so the salary bill will go up by 50,000 nurses.
Oh please, dont be so silly.
If you employ 100 people today and you manage to persuade those 100 people to stay your wage bill is 100 people
2019 Nurses in NHS 290,000. Wage bill = 290,000 nurses salaries.
19,000 nurses decide to leave wage bill = 271,000 nurses salaries
19,000 nurses are pursuaded not to leave = 290,000 nurses salaries.
290,000 - 290,000 = 0
No difference to wage bill.
Tory manifesto mentioned nothing about retention, it states 50,000 more nurses.
More means more
The word more means, more than currently exists today.
Not tomorrow
Not next week
Not in 5 years time.
Today.
290,000 nurses in NHS today.
More means 290,000 + 50,000
Ps, government are working on reducing attrition from around 12% down to 6%, but arent budgeting for any changes to make that reduction.
Experts in healthcare say government have diddly squat chance of achieving a retention of 19,000.
