Should the NHS stop funding IVF treatment?People only turn to IVF when they're desperate .Adoption sounds like a good alternative but with children only needing homes because they have come from a place with various kinds of appalling conditions , many people are simply unable to cope with the behaviour these traumatised children display . In addition they can only adopt if they can jump through the 'one person must stay at home for a year ' hoop and they have a house big enough for the children to have their own room etc etc adoption is not for the faint-hearted and people are rejected for incomprehensible reasons . My unwillingly childless friends say the pain never goes away , not only do they not have children , they don't have grandchildren either ,20 +years later salt is rubbed into the wound of childlessness .ViewDate:

How would you solve the NHS crisis?Make one care home in each area a convalescent home OR one area in every gargantuan hospital , same number of beds used but in a non-emergency capacity - no extra building , no bed blocking , emergency staff only needed as a call out , nursing staff to maintain dressings , nutrition and physio with a view to returning people home . Reduce the ridiculous amount of paperwork required -ensure doctors can refer straight to a specialist if necessary .
