Nicola Grant workers party representative has called upon the Northern Ireland Executive to stop the party-political squabbling in relation to the crisis in the Health and social care services. People are dying on trollies and in corridors, patients are being nursed in the most undignified situations, our dedicated health service staff are stretched to breaking point and they are the ones left feeling helpless at the lack of proper patient care.

Nicola continued those politicians that have been calling for reforms to be pushed through, should now stop and take stock of just how much damage previous rushed and failed reforms have caused. The privatisation of Domiciliary care services and residential care and nursing homes, in the previous so-called reforms are a major part of the log jam in our hospitals. Older and more vulnerable patients cannot be discharged because of the lack of care packages and residential and nursing care beds
