Give NHS staff and family fast track access to NHS medical services

Closed 65 signatures

What the petition asks

It is a well known fact that the NHS is struggling especially with regards to staffing. The number of productive hours lost due to delayed/ slow access to medical services for NHS staff and family members is enormous. A rapid access system would help significantly.
There has been a recent article that looked at the number of cancelled appointments and the article states that it has tripled and is at all time high. If we can help our NHS staff stay healthy and sort out their medical issues quicker that would in effect help reduce waiting times, improve the services overall.
