Stress of the benefit cuts on patients?

Patient going through stress from the benefits cut could be the most common thing nurses could be having to cope with. 
Many services started to cut back in 2009 but the cuts on the benefits started about 2011. For many people who have gone through benefit cuts, if they didn't suffer Epilepsy, Anxiety and depression before hand they sure do during losing times of losing money. There's nothing worse than worry about whether or not you have enough money to pay the bills and eat. At least in the last five years or if not more so many people have lost their homes and ended up on the street or and dead but each person has had a very difference reason.

May I just guess sorry because I'm not completely sure, Britain may have had at least thousands of suicides up to the last five years or more over benefit cuts. Now it's getting more and more worrying to hear. It mostly hits vulnerable person, such people who have disabilities and health problems but other vulnerable people too.


It's not always possible for the Gps to keep a check on peoples' health throughout the time people are waiting for their appeal. Most people have health problems that make it hard for people to get out and about, this can make it hard for them to get to Gps and hospital appointment. Transport is far too costly and not everyone has friends and family get them round. A lot of people can't affront to pay carers and support workers to help them with every day living skills.

Food is a worrying thing  when very few shops, supermarkets and etc sell cheap healthy food. Most people have certain disabilities that affect them cooking a fresh meal safely such as chopping veg, picking up heavy saucepans and carrying a hot heavy roast out the oven. Even though there are special cooking aids not everyone can affront them mainly those who have had their benefits cut.
These microwave meals are not very healthy plus many of those meals are not very big but in the terms of safety a lot  of  people with disabilities and health problems tend to buy those because they are safe and easy to cook. Now that very few people can affront support more of them are living on microwave meals whether they have had their benefits cut or not.

A lot of people don't like putting on people and yes people do have other lives, which is why a lot of people suffer in silents. This is something the government needs to wake up to. People who need the support mostly can't affront it. It's common sense people having their benefits cut is the worst time of all because people worry so much about paying out plus most people hate borrowing money off people because even if they win their appeal it doesn't mean they will have enough to pay what they owe.

As brief as this may sound but it can be very serious to a point where a lot of people feel as if life isn't worth living when they have got all these things to worry about and it can be very hard for them to see an end to this stress.

Just to let you know guys that there's not a lot of difference between Anxiety, Depression and Epilepsy. These health problems can be caused by different things but it's most common  cause is from caused by stress. people with disabilities and health problems due to our disabilities and health problems handle the stresses and worries of life different and more sensitive compared to a lot of people without disabilities and health problems, mainly when it comes down to things like the benefit cuts.

 I know this doesn't have anything to do with disabilities and health problems folks but nevertheless this is unforgivable. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/perverted-childrens-doctor-myles-bradbury-5060783?ICID=FB_mirror_main

Ok this patient they don't say have a learning disability but sorry to say Student Nurses, you may find yourself doing other Health profession's job at this rate. It looks like there's too much  neglect or and damage in the world of health whether someone is a vulnerable person or not.

How do these things come into a nurse's job?



  • I understand that nursing be a very tricky of job but in all fairness, most things are private these days.
  • If someone has taken an overdose it doesn't mean they will tell you the reason but then your not allow to ask either.
  • All the same the most common reasons for over doses are the benefit cuts.
  • All you can do is try to save peoples' lives the best way you can.
  •  Some patients maybe having Suicide thoughts, it may well be a case that things are getting bad to a point where they are waiting to do something about before they get to the stage where they feel it's getting close to edge for them.
  • It might be that they have been send different places from pillow to post not knowing which way to turn
  •  You could well have patients coming to hospital after having took an over doses but it may not be necessary it would be to do with benefit cuts.
  • Health problems may get worse because they may not have been able to get to the doctors without support they can't get.
  • Some Gps may not have send them to the hospital but whatever it is has got worse as time has gone on.
  • They may be light headed and feeling dizzy through not eating.
  •   Lack of diet because of lack of money.
  • A patient who has lost a lot of weight because of lack of money, he/she either hasn't eat or eaten very little.
  • Even there are a few people who may lucky enough to eat a bit more than others, they could be eating wrong kind of food because it's cheaper than the health food.
  • If they have transport problems they may only be able to shop very close to them where the healthy foods they may not be able to affront. 
  • You may come across patients lack of energy. 
  • How do you cope if you come across patients in those situations?
ser friendly is about been friendly towards people with disabilities and health problems. How would you like to be treated and spoken to? People with disabilities and health problems like to be helped when it’s needed. Just because people with disabilities and health problems need help more than others people shouldn’t treat them like babies and small children. Everyone needs help at some time no one should be wrapped in cotton wool to a point they can’t live in the big wide world. Why should people with disabilities and health problems be treated any different to other people just because we need more help than other people?
