Good evening. news at 10 o'clock. | :00:08. | :00:08. | |
Hospitals in Yorkshire are paying out more than ever | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
on temporary health care staff, despite the introduction | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
of a Government cap on how much they can spend. | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
is spending three times the amount it was five years ago. | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
Mealtime at Harrogate District Hospital, but is this kind of | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
familiarity becoming a thing of the past? | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
The trust which runs the hospital is one of many in the | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
region to see an increase in spending | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
Harrogate and District NHS trusts on increase in spending on | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
agency staff of around 42% over five years. | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
But even that was one of the smaller increases. | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
Freedom of information requests submitted by the BBC | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
show that some trusts have seen huge rises in temporary staff | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Trust has seen its spend | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
on agency medical staff rise by 212% to more than ?19 million. | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
The Mid Yorkshire trust, one of the region's biggest, | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
has seen the total rise 235% to ?29 million. | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
The NHS introduced caps in late 2015 not only the amount | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
hospitals could spend on agency health care staff but also on the | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
amount agencies were allowed to charge the NHS for | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
A move welcomed by the Harrogate trust. | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
We've got a real focus on recruitment of staff to | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
make sure we're filling up our establishment and also we have | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
less reliance on temporary and agency staff. | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
But some think the cap is nothing more than a sticking plaster | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
that doesn't address deeper problems within NHS staffing. | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
They don't deal with the underlying issue, which is around the retention | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
The only reason we have agency staff in the first place | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
is because we don't have enough permanent staff. | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
The NHS says agency spending has fallen in three quarters | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
of hospital trusts and that that's saved ?600 million | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
nationally, however as our research has shown, in Yorkshire | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
the spending for many of temporary staff is still far too high. | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
Police are investigating the death of a man whose body was found | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
Officers were called to the property in the Quarmby Road | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
The house is sealed off but it's not known at this stage whether | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
Today was the deadline to apply to be the new head of York Minster's | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
bell tower following a row last year. | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
Bosses at the Minster sacked the team of bell ringers | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
after a disagreement about how to keep staff safe. | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
The row meant the bells were silent over Christmas | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
for the first time in 600 years. | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
Relatives have launched a campaign to try to stop the closure | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
of a council-run care home in Bradford. | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
at the specialist Holme View dementia unit because the authority | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
But hundreds have signed a petition to keep it open. | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
A bitterly cold Bradford day, leaden skies and biting winds. | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
Inside Holme View care home, it's warm and comfortable, | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
but this specialist dementia unit could be closed down | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
It's a frightening prospect for the families of those who use it. | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
Here we've got a fine home, everybody's settled, | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
If there's any thought of moving, | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
which none of them really are aware of, I really don't know | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
To even begin to think about what might happen if the | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
likes of my cousin and some of the other residents, | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
our loved ones, are moved from here, the consequences | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
A petition against the closure has so far | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
It was set up by relatives of people in the home | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
who have also started an action group to fight the plans. | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
It's people out there that have also got relatives | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
with dementia that would possibly be looking for care. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
22 people currently call this place home with another ten using its | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
services and it's been rated good by the Care Quality Commission. | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
But the issue isn't its performance, | :04:15. | :04:15. | |
Bradford Councillor Val Slater told us today | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
that when this home was originally constructed, building specification | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
standards were quite different and that to | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
upgrade it now would cost a lot of money and inconvenience. | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
What will actually happen to Holme View care home | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
in the future will be decided on in the summer. | :04:33. | :04:40. | |
Gavin McDonnell's dream of joining twin brother Jamie as a world | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
The Doncaster fighter lost on points to Mexican Rey Vargas | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
in his bid to land the vacant WBC super-bantamweight title. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Victory would have delivered Britain's first simultaneous | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
twin world champions, with Jamie already in possession | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
Jennifer Bartrum has the weather forecast. | :05:01. | :05:09. | |
We keep a fairly brisk wind as we go through | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
There will be a few showers around and | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
some clear spells as well and under the clear skies, the temperatures | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
will be dropping down to around three or 4 degrees to take us | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
Quite a few showers in the forecast for Monday. | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
Some of these are going to be quite heavy. | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
Expect some hail, some thunder, and over higher ground they will be | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
But in between the showers, there will be | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
some brighter spells where we will see the sunshine coming through | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
Temperatures up to around seven or 8 degrees. | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
As we go through the rest of the week, | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
Some further showers on Tuesday with highs of six Celsius. | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
We'll have another update at 10:20pm. | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
Good evening. The fifth named storm of the season has been affecting the | :05:55. | :06:18. | |
west of the UK, and it was named Ewan by the Irish meteorological | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
service because that is where the impact was expected, but it has been | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
quite wet for some and the wettest weather is moving northwards across | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
the North of Scotland and the stronger winds go with that. Strong | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
winds pushing away towards the east with showers and then further | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
showers behind overnight, and some of the showers will contain some | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
wintry weather. It will be quite cold for the North and west of the | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
UK, 2 degrees in | :06:45. | :06:45. |
