On the other hand, as you say, some have opted for nursing as a career, through academia, and have as much passion, understanding, and empathy as Eva Braun.
I've experienced some, who work in mental health, who were really so disturbed it left you wondering who was the patient, and who was on the staff.
Another, a male nurse on a surgical ward at Blackburn, shouldn't really be allowed near any living animal, certainly not a sick human.

Your'e correct in saying that we do still have some wonderful staff employed within the NHS, however their "shining lights" are being ever more dimmed by the needs of management & efficiency over Care. Patients by & large now are treated as numbers not as people, and that isn't progress is it!
I've never experienced less CARE now than at any stage than i can remember within the NHS almost every other person i speak to who has experienced hospital residence recently, has had some detrimental experience, which is mainly based around the level of care & understanding they have received! If loved ones went into hospital, we always used to say" well your in the best place now"..i'm afraid these days i wouldn't probably express that opinion.
I can honestly say now, that it really would worry me, having to be admitted to one of our local hospitals!..I know that it could happen one day soon..and i'll be honest..the thought frightens me...based purely on what i've seen!
