Will the influx of 200,000 people fix this chronic problem, page-42

Hi Parsifal
The problems have been growing for about 40 years at least and will not be fixed in one government term
Throwing money at a problem has never fixed any problem

So where do we go
First we have to accept that we have a problem, only then can we fix it

Staff, we need a short term and long term solution
Short term is to get all the sacked workers back to work immediately, they were sacked for a political necessity not a medical one
Have you spent any time in a hospital viewing all the mind numbing red tape which as a guess cuts everyone's work output by at least of 50%

As to long term, give Australians first pick at university positions and cut back the overseas student levels IE places for overseas must be no more than 20% of all places
Then employ the best tutors in the schools so the result is quality

The short term problems are things that can be done by the end of the week
The long term by the end of the year

There is of course the probable fact that the upper echelon of the health system has far too many people doing nothing but warm seats, this is money that can be instantly re-routed to nursing staff

Basically all the above can be done without the need for extra funds

RESULT problem not solved but now pointing up and not down
