Our letter to Sir Keir Starmer says nursing staff have the solutions to overcome the significant challenges facing health and social care.
Investment in staff must be his priority as Prime Minister. ⬇️

RCN Chief Executive and General Secretary Professor Pat Cullen and @RCNPresident Sheila Sobrany wish all our members a very happy #NursesDay.

Nursing is not a vocation. It’s a highly skilled, safety-critical profession.
On Sunday we’re asking members, patients and the public to share on social media why nursing staff deserve more recognition.
Download our assets and share using #NursesDay.

ALT Quote from Professor Pat Cullen reads: Solutions to the nursing workforce crisis are often described as being overly complex. But the reality is that those working in health and care services want to be rewarded fairly and to deliver the level of care they were trained to. With the prospect of better pay and working conditions abroad, it should be little wonder why nurses are opting to use their skills elsewhere.

Nursing staff in Somerset are demanding that an NHS trust issues more permits so that they can park nearer to their place of work. Staff at Musgrove Park Hospital have collected more than 2,000 signatures calling for more spaces to be created... itv.com/news/westcountry/202…
