Nursing staff stretched to breaking point over pay

Nursing staff stretched to breaking point over pay An RCN survey today lays bare the extent of financial pressure on the nursing workforce, as the College calls for a “clear signal” on pay in next week’s Budget.

Nursing staff are suffering such financial hardship that nearly three out of four say they feel worse off than they did five years ago, while almost a quarter have had to take on another job simply to make ends meet.

These are some of the findings from the RCN’s biennial employment survey, published today.

The results come ahead of next week’s Budget, when the Chancellor is being urged to address the issue of public sector pay. Royal College of Nursing
