"Darren Millar stated it was a 'disgrace' that newly qualified paramedics had been told to look abroad for jobs as there were none in the Welsh NHS."
"Jane Dodds suggested that the social care 'crisis' of 1,400 people being in hospital when they should not be could be addressed by a 1p income tax rise."
"Millar described the NHS as being in 'crisis' with people 'dying needlessly' and denied that his call for a 'national health emergency' was a gimmick."
"Despite a record drop in waiting lists, the total number of patients waiting remains high, with 713,048 patient pathways on waiting lists in January."
The Welsh NHS is experiencing a crisis, highlighted by high waiting lists and a shortage of jobs for newly qualified paramedics. Darren Millar criticized the situation, stating that it is a disgrace that these professionals are advised to seek employment overseas. Jane Dodds proposed a 1p income tax increase to address the social care crisis, while Rhun ap Iorwerth assured that no one would wait more than two years for treatment under a Plaid government. Despite a record drop in waiting lists, concerns about access to GPs and hospital reorganizations persist.
