Comment on: Voluntary pay-off scheme could lead to nurse exodus
After 9 years service I have been offered 3 months salary to leave! There aren't any jobs nearby either. I think I may well have had it with nursing.

Comment on: Advanced nursing practice regulation needs 'measured debate', says NMC
I think its very difficult to call. I am currently undertaking the MSc in Advanced practice with colleagues from disciplines outside of nursing. Advanced practice is not unique to nursing, also the role is likely to keep on evolving so perhaps creating a definition and a separate part of the register may well be counter productive.

Comment on: 'Nurses have become too important for basic care', and other nonsense

Comment on: Conservatives to divert NHS resources to deprived areas
I think that its fair to say that inequalities in health will remain one of those political white elephants. Each party promises to end the problem but the simple truth is that the poor are politically disenfranchised in this country. There's simply no votes in it other than coming out with a headline promise.

What qualifies as 'deprived areas' to a Conservative? Perhaps no piano at home? Huzzah! The Eton boys have returned!
