In October 2023, it emerged that the number of people waiting longer than 18 months for NHS treatment in England was growing.

Raising pay won't reduce wait times only increasing staff numbers to avoid burnout and high turnover will help that.
@9NWCCZF6mos6MO
Raising NHS salaries has no bearing on wait times, but they should have their salaries raised regardless

No why would paying them more reduce wait times are they suddenly going to be more efficient in their job?

This question and answer are not relative to each other. We deserve a wage rise, reflective of our skill set - this does not, however, impact upon wait times. Staff strikes to campaign for fair pay does had minimal impact on wait times.
Wait times are impacted by budget cuts imposed by the Govt, closure and privatisation of health and care services.

How does increasing salaries reduce wait times. Need more staff so can they afford to increase wages and staff ?
@9PZMMR95mos5MO
The main problem is how overworked our doctors are. A good wage doesn't matter if you don't have a life to spend it on.
@9NXJ8666mos6MO
Salaries should increase but more importantly working conditions need to be improved to stop healthcare professionals leaving.
@9Q3GSMD5mos5MO
It is not entirely around the salaries. We need to increase capacity as a whole with updated infrastructure, improved social programmes and a push to improve food quality intake.
