Petition Action

Deploy NHS staff in non emergency sectors into Corona virus affected hospitals.

Petition Details

Deploy all non-emergency NHS workers into other sectors to help out with the massive influx of patients due to the national emergency that is COVID-19 --> portering, delivering medication or any other help that is required to ensure all of our hospitals are run at full efficiency and efficacy.

Additional Information

Non-emergency staff are still running clinics such as screening programmes that have seen a massive drop in uptake due to people staying at home. Staff MUST be re-deployed to other sectors in order to help assuage the pressure on front-line staff. The NHS is inspirational and filled with staff who want to help but are not being given the opportunity to do so.
