      People are living so much longer and diagnostics/tests are increasing, the natural result of which is increasing cost. We have free emergency treatment in Australia, but we do pay towards it through a 2% levy on our salary. Maybe UK could introduce something similar? It would be a small price to pay to save something so special. (An ex-Brit!)

He's just aware that he's not a touchy feely person and knows he can't reassure family members like others can. He really just wants to solve the problem for the patient rather than being an emotional support for the family.

    I have had the unfortunate opportunity to be a regular patient with the NHS. But regardless of my health concerns, the doctors, nurses and everyone else involved have been nothing but amazing. I became friends with a nurse who I unfortunately repeatedly have the pleasure of seeing. Before I go home, she'd say "now get out and stay out" and we'd laugh about it. My point is, yes the NHS is technically not free because of Taxes etc but for the treatment, help, assurance, comfort, professionalism, medication, scans, X-rays etc I receive, the NHS are a god send. If you work as part of the NHS, anything from cleaner to surgeon, I would like to thank you immensely for keeping me alive. If I was in America, I wouldn't be able to afford to live as long as I have

      Years ago I had a doctor stab at me three painful times trying to insert a canula and then made a quick exit, obviously embarrassed. The poor nurse who'd called him had previously said to me that she could do it but wasn't certified to do so. I think she was aghast. She called yet another doctor, who managed it. My whole arm was black and blue for quite a while! You can imagine how I felt when an ambulance driver said he was going to insert a canula, but he was brilliant and I honestly hardly felt a thing.

    In my community (not in the UK) I really feel sometimes, we need a separate ED and wards for elderly people. I'm not being ageist here, the fact is, where I live is considered to be the retirement town, of my country. There are more senior citizens than there are any other age group. Of course, in winter, this puts a lot of pressure on our small community hospital. This winter, I was extremely ill, and really should have been admitted, but every bed in the hospital apart from the maternity unit, and a few surgical beds, was taken up by an elderly patient, with their various winter ailments. I ended up by having to spend 4 hours a day in ED on IV antibiotics, and then being visited twice a day by a nurse, in my own home.

      Its a big issue primarily around education in what services are available many people don't understand where they can go so they feel only option is ed as catch all sort of. Here in Australia there has been particularly where i am lots of encouragement and push for public education example in like ed or health facilities posters about how to know where to go/contact numbers and also encouraging people to use walk in centers which are free via medicare have nurses, nurse practitioners and doctors. Also people who worry about cost or if you don't have medicare that those services may cost. I've made the mistake of going to ed but in the moment you feel sick especially if at night even if not the worst thing it might feel like it at time or calling gp hotline

I’ve talked to many vets and they all say it’s the most emotionally draining part of their jobs.

    Don't have a leg to stand on regarding medical practice. Im a phd student in computer science, worked on arguably most complex systems out there. Noticed diagnosing a patient is like finding a bug or failed system. You have this whole web of digital anatomy that you have to look at the smallest error output that may not tell you more than "error" and then decypher what system, what technology is used and why its failing and remidy a fix. If youre working with such a product that has been developed in house and no one else on the planet knows the system, just the technology stack (vaguely even) it can be the most sleep ruining, mentally taxing issue ive ever faced. What I have described is the exact issue i had last year, it took me 3 months to "diagnose", nothing in the api regarding it that was obvious. A config required a certain check. This config was for ANOTHER system, barely lingering onto the one which was producing the error.
    If being a dr is anything like that, i wouldnt be able to sleep thinking about the patients ive seen diagnosis.
