Then ask yourself why the staff are under so much stress is it due to staffing levels? Which of course is linked to funding, there is no one issue it's a catalogue of contributory factors. None of which privatisation would solve.
Was it ever thought to say no to the offer of medication offered to your mother if she had an ample supply?
That's a drain on resources people taking things simply because they are offered.
