We can't solve 12y underinvestment overnight This is why ⬆️Nurses are leaving and ⬇️Nurses joining NHS need to resolve the The RCN #FairPayforNursing dispute so: ⬆️Nursing numbers ⬆️Nursing morale ⬆️Quality and Safety of Patient Care Time to start listening Rishi Sunak

Sort Pay across the NHS board or retention ( let alone recruitment) is going very rapidly downhill!

Pure fiction Mr Hunt! Not credible for a CC Nurse to work agency in just her local hospital under an Umbrella company! gov.uk/government/cas…

Trying to be objective, nurse settlement; >Is 3% below inflation which is predicted to fall >gets nowhere near pay reinstatement >non consolidated pay is taxed, HMT’ll claw back >a nurse only AfC is caveated around legal and consultation >commitment to safe staffing exists 1/2

So after 35+ years Nursing , mostly in various iterations of Musgrove Park Hospital/ Somerset NHS Foundation Trust I have time for a short rest! Returning part-time in May, really looking forward to making a difference in my new role.

You have voted to reject the NHS pay offer for nursing staff in England. Next steps: - Seek urgent talks with UK govt - 48-hour strike from 8pm 30 April, without derogations - England-wide statutory ballot to extend current strike mandate Read more. rcn.org.uk/magazines/News…

NHS England has told hospitals they are not allowed to increase their staffing in the next 12 months, reports Henry Anderson. One director said: "I worry that this will lead boards to take unsafe risks, and head into Mid Staffs territory." hsj.co.uk/finance-and-ef…

15 year "plan" from a party who seem unlikely to be in office in 15 months Retention sentiments v welcome, but 2030/31 is a LONG way away to turn the last 13 years around
