Which Priority Comes First in the UK?

The first election debate on ITV 1 will perhaps encourage more younger viewers to vote and hopefully everyone will have a long term vision into the future. More political politics and less personal politics are needed for everyone to make the most sensible decisions. There are a lot of things that need to be said before the UK election, with so many important issues to consider. What priorities should come first when there are so many and how should they be put into practise.

I am still concerned about the thousands of carers described by David Cameron as the unsung heroes and heroines which in deed carers are, the suggestion that they should all have a one weeks respite(per year?) does little to ease their burden. The suggestion that carers should be entitled to budget their own money is a good idea, but what money? When elderly carers are supposed to be retired they are still working extremely hard caring for loved ones at home and are not paid any money at all for the vital work they do, it is time for the emotional blackmail to stop, carers cannot live on love alone, it is adding insult to injury relying on their compassion and voluntary help to all society to say there is not enough money when they have saved the government 87 billion pounds per year for many years, in fairness carers should be a top priority now.

Many unemployed relatives, and young people would be more willing to stay at home and care for their loved ones if their caring was considered the difficult work that it is and paid for accordingly, plus there should be courses to enable them to do so, and laws to prevent anyone taking unfair advantage. This would encourage families and others to have more love and respect, and help to keep the elderly and disabled in their own home and not have to sell their houses to cover costs, or go into a care home, plus enable people to pay taxes.
I apologise for repeating myself but when is someone going to listen and do what is right.

Regarding Carers- Caring for those with Mental Disabilities

Anyone caring for a loved one at home suffering from a mental disability knows that whatever mental problem the patient has their moods can fluctuate and their and actions can be disruptive and sometimes extremely difficult to cope with.
Nurses are required to have a degree in their nursing profession yet thousands of carers who have full time responsibility caring at home for their loved ones who have a mental illness are at a loss having neither a degree in mental nursing nor an adequate means test regarding the patient’s behavioural problem. Although this can be difficult to assess individually because behaviour can vary dramatically in individual cases there is no excuse to ignore any individual suffering from mental illness or carer who needs help.

Due to cost cutting in the UK those with only the severest physical disabilities can receive help at home, it is now imperative that those who are mentally ill are given a fair assessment, and their carers given the consideration they deserve, does the NHS think that they are going to conveniently disappear, or are these carers many who are elderly going to be expected to get a degree and work up to 24 hours a day till they drop.

Dementia affects the frontal lobes of the brain and can cause severe personality problems it is a mental illness and should be treated as such even though the patient maybe physically capable in other ways. Much more attention must be given to all those who are mentally ill and those who care for them at home; whoever wins in the forthcoming election in the UK this must be one of the first priorities.

Millions of pounds earmarked to give Britain’s unsung army of carers vital short-term breaks is being plundered by the NHS to plug holes in health budgets, a shocking 80 percent of a 50 million pound package has been creamed off by primary care trusts before it reaches hard pressed carers who work round the clock to help loved ones to stay at home.

Social Workers Month March 2010. Love them or Hate them

Looking forward to Social Workers month march 2010, anyone who wants to become a social worker should begin by sincerely wanting to be in a position to help people in the best possible way. There are however too many examples reported in the media where social services have failed. Maybe it is because there are those who unfortunately see their work more as a career than a vocation which neither helps anyone who probably desperately needs it, or attracts the right kind of social worker. Most try to do their best and find in many cases it is not easy.
Everyone has their own ideas and it can be difficult if the good ideas presented by social workers in the field with personal contact with their cases are ignored by those in authority above them which can lead to bad decisions being made. I have had experience of both good social workers who are excellent, and the bad that are truly horrendous. The responsibility and power that those working in social care have is enormous, lives can be helped or completely destroyed, and we all want the best social workers who we can trust in the job. It is certain that there are going to be changes in the UK in the future and we must all make sure that good social workers know what their work entails and are able to follow through to get the best reliable results for anyone that needs help what ever their individual circumstances are.
To those social workers who are successfully doing good work God Bless you.

To those who are not whether you believe in poetic justice or not what goes around comes around it could very easily be you.

http://www.socialworkers.org/pressroom/default.asp

There are people in positions of authority in all walks of life who are taking advantage of the vulnerable and being paid unfair and obscene amounts of money. Those who are in positions of care doing so should be ashamed, it is up to every one of us to make the choice to do what is right and make sure in what ever way we can where ever we are to expose, reject and depose those whose work is more than questionable.
.
The only way to change things for the better is to always think and act with compassion.

Thousands of needless deaths in UK

1,200 needless deaths at one hospital in UK, one family lost four loved ones within 18 months her grandmother, sister, uncle, and six day old baby, and no one is being blamed or brought to answer for it. Staff were bullied to meet targets all because Mid Staffordshire NHS Trust put government targets and cost cutting ahead of patient care and the failed boss walks off with a £1 million pension pot, six months salary and a possible£400,000 pay-off. Some patients were left without food and water for days, filthy wards, and a catalogue of bloody things enough to make you think this has got to be a nightmare this is worse than diabolical.
Please read- link

Consider also that almost 50,000 NHS patients per year are dying while suffering from malnutrition in hospitals in England; in general the elderly are treated as second class citizens. There is no excuse for food to be left out of reach or taken away before they have time to finish what ever Health Minister Phil Hope said when defending the government’s record!

Lost innocents, Immigrant Home Children

2010 year of the British Home child, some people may be wondering who a British Home child is. Try to imagine being a very young child from an impoverished background being offered the opportunity to have a wonderful life and live in a land where the sun always shines, even though it meant leaving their mother, father, sisters, and brothers behind. These children some of them orphans, even street children were horded up under the child migration scheme founded by Kingsley Fairbridge in 1869 and sent to live in a foreign land, some were even taken without their parents knowledge, 150,000 children over a period of 350 years, this practice lasted right up until the late 1960’s, and far from being the promised land when they arrived these children found themselves no more than slaves working as servants in households and doing farm labouring work, being abused with no one who cared. Some so cruelly treated many committed suicide, to find out more about these lost innocents click on the links below, There are now still thousands still searching for their lost families so I am giving some links here that may help.

(Sadly Minister Jason Kenney issued a statement that Canada will not be apologizing to child migrants.)
