There is no shortage of nurses in the UK nowadays. There IS a shortage of money to pay them though. In the Midlands they have recently laid off hundreds, maybe thousands, and other medical personnel too, because they can&#39;t afford to retain enough staff to provide full patient cover.

Poor management.
