Save Staffordshire's NHS Say No to the STP
We are calling on Politicians to reject the findings of the Staffordshire Sustainability and Transformation Plan. We believe that the findings outlined in the Staffordshire STP are a footprint to make further devastating cuts to NHS
Why is this important?
We are concerned about the following aspects outlined in the plan.
• The reduction of A&E Departments from three to two. Wherever this closure maybe we believe that it will simply put further pressure on A&E departments in other parts of the county.
• Closure of community hospital beds.
• The further privatisation and fragmentation of NHS services within the country.
• Closure of hospital departments putting further pressure on other services
• The redeployment of staff which poses a risk to nurses and other health care professionals pay and terms and conditions.
We believe that these proposals pose a direct threat to NHS services within the County and therefore we stand united in our opposition to these proposals. Please sign our petition to oppose these proposals and to save our NHS
