Help fund medical degrees and implement more medical awareness in education
More financial support towards medical degrees (i.e sponsoring first year), and training students in compulsory education with how to treat minor medical emergencies: CPR, bruises, and cuts.
The NHS waiting list is dangerously crowded, there are too many patients and not enough doctors - so we must encourage more people to become doctors, and financially support even our current medical students.
Additionally, UK residents must learn how to treat minor medical emergencies independently, as to not take up room in the limited A&E's available. Compulsory education could implement this, so that households are equipped with medical knowledge they can apply.
