Comment on: 'Your enthusiasm and commitment will rub off on others'
Does he live in the real world. Great idea "staff away days"..does this apply to clinical staff at ward level? Does he realize how difficult if not impossible it is to get time off for any sort of CPD? Also not sure what he is including in "mundane tasks"..hope its not "basic care" like for instance helping someone to the toilet or giving them a drinK...but then thats probably not exciting enough!!

Comment on: University to train all nurses to degree level
Have to agree entirely with the previous comment. Are the NMC and the Universities totally ignorant about the reality that is todays "caring" NHS. Do they really think that Degree status will bring about the desired change in attitudes towards older people. The emphasis upon the technological said it all. Compassionate competent couregeous individuals are the ones who will change this appaling neglect of the attitude, not just a degree in more of the same. I reiterate what the previouos person said. Choose wisely you may be in the bed one day.

Comment on: Safety fears prompt calls for more nurse led care plans
Dear Anonymous. Yes there are too many forms and no doubt too many patients, but the fact remains that Registered nurses are employed and paid to care for patients. Instead of having a go at me, perhaps you should take your grievances about staffing levels to your Ward manager, or your line manager, if this achieves nothing take it the your professional organisation and if that achieves nothing take it to the NMC the people you pay your fees to. I have no problem with putting my name to anything, but I was'nt aware my age was there too.

Comment on: Safety fears prompt calls for more nurse led care plans
Once again I find this article appalling. What exactly is it that Registered nurses are there to do if not to assess and plan care for patients. What are the Universities doing, what are they being taught?. Who else is supposed to assess and plan care (perhaps they leave that to the Health care worker along with everything else. Has anyone ever heard of the Regulator of Nurses The Nursing and Midwifery Council. Have they said anything, or are they silent on this matter too?

Comment on: NMC will not take action against Basildon nurses
Well done, pity there wern't more like you. I shall be emailing the the Chief Executive of NMC to register my disgust at this, and I have already emailed the super regulator the CHRE to tell them what I think. If more of us would do this, perhaps things would change for the better. What sort of message does this send out, that it is ok to neglect because I did'nt get any support!!!!!!!!!!
