NHS vacancies a 'national emergency'

NHS vacancies a 'national emergency' The shortage of NHS staff in England has started worsening again, official figures show.  One in 11 posts is vacant with the situation particularly bad among the nursing workforce.
Experts described the situation as at risk of becoming a "national emergency" given the rising demands on the NHS.
It comes after sustained efforts by ministers and NHS bosses to tackle the shortages, including a new pay deal and recruitment and retention campaigns.  BBC News - Health
