London, Aug 11 (RHC) Nurses in the United Kingdom warned Thursday about the government's insufficient investment in the National Health System for a decade and the dire consequences for patients.

In this sense, the number of people on waiting lists in hospitals in England reached a new record close to eight million, so the professionals alluded to the deepening of the crisis in the sector.

Also, data published by health institutions in the European nation revealed that the number of patients in need of treatment at the end of June increased compared to May this year, the highest since records began in 2007.

Likewise, nurses denounced the resignation of personnel as a consequence of low salaries, the work pressure on those who remain in health centers and how one in eight people are waiting for a medical procedure. (Source: PL)
