Open Increase funding for staff in hospitals to support those in mental health crisis

Created by Chloe Morris
Closes on

Increase funding for more staff to ensure vulnerable patients cannot hurt themselves. When anybody, whatever age, is admitted to a general or psychiatric hospital, whether this be A&E or detained under the Mental Health Act, they must be kept safe.

Hospitals are places where sick and vulnerable people are meant to be looked after. I think the government need to increase funding so these places are safer for us.
