“While there will be an overall reduction in posts, our goal is to retain skills and experience and avoid redundancy wherever possible.”Commenter Boscastle asks: “Job cuts and restructuring.
Will these job cuts include the high made management team or the low paid manual staff?
Don’t take away frontline staff, they are the ones with compassion who do the job.”KernowHobhit agrees: “This is ridiculous, the frontline are short staffed as it is and many wards are struggling to staff themselves fully without expensive agency staff.
If savings must be made, surely getting more substantive frontline staff on the books at the standard rate and cutting agency costs would be a better saving.”Justice4cornwall adds: “It’s shambolic, they will cut frontline staff so those left will be under pressure and go off sick.
The staff are needed at all hospitals in Cornwall.”Matty1975 agrees: “Reducing nursing/ frontline staff jobs will have a hugely negative effect on patients, and you cannot argue that.
