·
The UK benefit system is way too high now with too many people
with and without disabilities and health problems.
·
A lot of people have no good reason to be on benefits other than
they don’t want to work and they want to live off benefit money yet our government
is too blind to see it.
·
A lot of disabled and
unwell people want to work with the right support and come off benefits yet we
have good reasons to be on benefits and the government blaming us for them spending
so much money on the benefit system, it’s most unfair it is.
·
People without disabilities and health problems do not have
anything wrong them to affect from working.
Feedback from students and myself of the benefit cuts awareness sessions.
When I have done the benefit awareness session on Wednesday I would have done it four times so therefore I won’t be teaching it again till next September - October 2016 when next year’s 1st year comes in. After Wednesday to next Autumn I hope to be setting up other sessions. I understand it will be hard for last year’s 3rd year to share the feedback as they are not with us now unless they manage to have time to look at my website. As it’s my last benefit awareness for twelve months, I would like us to after plan after this session for this year’s 1st, 2nd 3rd year plus myself, Lynne and Steve to get together to say what we have learned off each other’s feedback, which will be put into this report.
Hi guys now I have done the benefit cuts four times to the 1st
2nd and year. As you are all
aware every September every year changes
there is a now 1st
year, last year’s 1st year becomes the 2nd year. Last 1st
year becomes the 2nd year; last year’s 2nd year becomes the 3rd
year. Yesterday’s session become a session. As I said in my last up date in the report I
won’t be teaching it till next September to October 2016 when the next 1st
year comes in. Now these four sessions
are done I will like to share each other’s feedback from each session. My
reason for this because the first session I did here I had never done these
session before so not only your learning I am too. Each session I have done it
hasn’t all been same mainly because of time, nevus, or I may have not thought
in one session I thought about in the other.
For example this I
remembered to make the students aware of what kind of benefits there are
whereas I didn’t with others. There
could be all kinds of reasons why each other’s feedback to learn from could be
useful to you for example someone might have thought of something you didn’t
that you agree with. Someone may have said something disagreed with but give
your reasons why you disagree without falling out and respect the way they
think even if you disagree. They must respect the way you think too even if
they might disagree with you for whatever reason but you have rights to know
the reason why they may disagree too and you both the same rights with each if
you agree with one another.
We must accept that last year’s 3rd
year is likely to be working a lot now but they may look on website when they
have time to do so it would be rather hard for them to share the feedback with
us but I guess if they would make their managers aware to find out whether or
not if they can take what they from here onto their job, which could be things
that I may not have thought to put into their session but into your.
It’s still uncertain yet whether or not we can get this year’s 1st,
2nd and 3rd year face to share each other’s feedback but
please share each other’s feedback on here for now until we know for sure thank
you. I will send this report in and to this Lynn to see that the 2nd
and 3rd gets to share to report feed back with you 1st
year. I could ask Lynn about planning somehow about group feeding back to each other
to each other feedback.
Like I have said in reports in the past that you will not be
expected to be around for your patient on every part of their life so therefore
you may think to yourself why is Sara teaching us this then? Good
question to think about. My answer to that which I have every faith you are
aware that every day negative experiences for these people is huge stress their
health.
Yes I know it can’t be
avoided and with a lot of things everybody else is in the same boat deal with
it, I know. All the same how other people deal with these things can be
different to how people with disabilities and health problems cope even harder
if they don’t have a great of support or not any support.
Therefore I think it’s good for you to know as much as possible.
You never know what places you are going to; you also never know where you’re
going to be working after you have been with us for three years at the
University. Most things what we prepare you for you never know you may be not
ever have to use all what we teach you. It can move in all kinds of strange
circles where some things we hope you won’t find yourself dealing things you
do. In what I am teaching I only hope you don’t find yourself dealing with but
you can’t but think so because the benefits cuts sadly seems to be the way of
this country these days.
What I am going to do now is put on some links of the updates of
the benefit system. Just to let you know what benefits there are, how they work
and etc. If you have chance to study between now and Wednesday feedback to me
then or after then, even before sarajgorman@gmail.com Hopefully if I am able to plan for you
guys to get together with the 2nd year,
3rd year, myself,
Lynne, Mick and Steve you could feedback to me then, if any of you guys from
the 2nd and 3rd year is reading this it includes you
too. If information is out of date may be you could try to find the in date
information.
There's a lot of websites to help you with your studying, many websites to prove to how the benefit system has had a huge affect on the lives of people with disabilities and health problems for some years and still is going on now.

Benefit cuts
awareness Feedback.
I really emphasised with what Sara was
saying. I could see that the benefit system doesn’t seem to understand
nor care about people with LD.
It was good that Sara highlighted the
emotional, physical and psychological problems facing people with LD. It is bad
that the Government, who are meant to be looking after the people, have put
laws and systems in place that leave people with LD in such distress.
People with LD can experience anxiety,
depression, suicidal thoughts, illness, lose their homes, be without money for
long periods of time, due to their benefits being stopped or assessed.

People with LD need as much help as
possible when it comes to benefits. And as future LD nurses, we will be aware
of their plight and in a position to help with applications, as advocates, and
with calming their fears.
At this particular moment in time it is
all about awareness, understanding, and empathy. If a LD nurse is aware
of the issues then we will be in a better position to help people with LD who
is in this situation.
Last year’s
2nd year Student's feedback from the Benefit cuts awareness session Monday 11th
May 2015 University Of Wolverhampton Walsall Campus.
Benefit cuts:
· Services
cuts / already some services are closed

· Increased
crime figures due to cuts?
· Lack
of support in the home people are just left to cope alone because of lack of
funding
· Mental
health problems increasing
· Isolation
/ decreased socialization lack of activities
· Increased
immobility = health issues
· Government
plans to be aware of these so as to help service users
· Community
after hospitals closed but there is ever decreasing support available
· Increased
likelihood of not getting roles due to CV changes or limited chances
· Job
centres not always in line with work areas – availability of posts etc
· Increase
in homelessness
Poverty
· Suitable
job – not just any job
· Direct
payments = effects on people
· Abuse
of the vulnerable
· Increase
in protests / strikes?
· Lord

Feedback on
the benefit cuts awareness session from last year’s 3rd year.
I am glad you enjoyed the presentation;
my confidence and presentation content those of you who were in my session.
I am glad you have learned how to help
people who have had their benefits cut.
Yes this topic is your role when it
comes to looking out for your patient’s health.
Sara’s feedback: I am very happy that
you’re happy with my feedback. I have learned as much from the students as they
do from me.
Each session I do I will learn
better for the next time I do a session? I feel I remembered to explain more
what a student job role is this time than I did last time. The role of a
learning disability nurse is looking for the health of learning disabilities
and health problems. The state of the system with services going through cuts
and benefit cut is a huge risk to the health of patients.
The changes that need to be made are
that the health needs of people with disabilities and health problems need to
be take care of to save lives. People with disabilities and health problems are
human just like other people so do their lives matter just like other peoples.
I am glad you have learned about the
insight of the benefit cuts and how they affect people with a learning
disability.
Risk of people being from service to service with no help prevented can be a huge affects on their health with Anxiety and Depression.

Thank you so much for your great feedback I’m so glad you enjoyed listening to my information. I am just so sorry about the limit of time so yes please look at my website to learn more thank so much for taking time to be in my session and I thank you everyone as well for your patience’s in yesterday’s class.
The risk can be with most people there doesn’t seem to be very clear information people with disabilities and health to when they have go through when they are going through benefit change. For example: DLA changing to PIP some people have gone through it others haven’t. Most people worry like myself for example when am I going to get this over and done with? Benefit letters don’t seem to be very clear and there’s far too much information for a lot of people with disabilities and health problems.

Feedback from
students and myself of the benefit cuts awareness sessions.
When I have done the benefit awareness
session on Wednesday I would have done it four times so therefore I won’t be
teaching it again till next September - October 2016 when next year’s 1st year
comes in. After Wednesday to next Autumn I hope to be setting up other
sessions. I understand it will be hard for last year’s 3rd year
to share the feedback as they are not with us now unless they manage to have
time to look at my website. As it’s my last benefit awareness for twelve
months, I would like us to after plan after this session for this year’s 1st,
2nd 3rd year plus myself, Lynne and Steve to
get together to say what we have learned off each other’s feedback, which will
be put into this report.

not aware of to make me aware and how they work.
·
They have said I have taught them a good insight of the stress the
benefit system on how the stress affects vulnerable people’s health.
- Well done to you all guys and if there was anyone not able to get there that would have done please feedback to them thank you.
Comments from my work colleague Lynne.
Fantastic session well explored of all aspects of all the topic.
My Comments.
I have tried to encourage the students to research online to find
out what benefits are around.
I have told them the risks to disabled people’s health the benefit
cuts do have for example not having enough money to eat and the risk of them
losing a lot of weight but the risk of debt if they have to borrow money. Students need to learn more of the stress
these situations have to vulnerable people’s health. Well done to everyone who was
taking part in the session.
Anxiety and Depression isn't all black and white no one knows what is under a smile but then you shouldn't have to look and seem sad all the while to prove you suffer from Anxiety and Depression. Even people who made you laugh can feel very sad inside. Anxiety and Depression is a sad and angry feeling, which you can spend you all your life to fight.On the bright side people with disabilities and health problems are not helpless and we are not useless there's just a limit of what we can do. We may well need support with everyday living but then a lot of us if not all are talented in other ways but then with these cuts going now it's a case of managing the best way we can because support is limited compared to what it used to be,
In terms of your possible work.
This is where I feel sorry for a lot of services, hospitals,
GP surgeries and etc in one way. It can be hard to know whether
or not most people are lacking for attention or not in the terms of
pretending to be someone they are not just to get proof to go benefits because
they don't want to work yet there are most that are the complete opposite, it
can be hard to prove one way or the other. This is one of the things that can
cause a lot of mistakes. For example about twelve months ago I saw a report
online about a GP having wrote a sick out for a patient who had a cold and yet
there's been those who have had more serious that can't seem to get any proof
for themselves at all.
Different seem to have different experiences with
the GPS. Some people will say that GPS don't have enough training and
others see it in a way that most of the job they don't want to but yes there
have been other who have said they have had bad experiences with the GPS
but then many have with hospitals too.
