Comment on: NHS workers living standards under threat
I for one can say that my living standards are not what they used to be. I have cut back and back and back. I am a one parent family, mid point band 6, so I am not entitled to any working tax benefits. Everything is going up except my salary. RCN you really have got to fight for us. Once interests rates go up there will be a lot of us nurses losing our homes because we just cannot stretch our finances any further. Other public sector workers appear to have such a better deal than us, again this shows to me how our profession lacks the respect it deserves.

Comment on: RCN president calls on nurses to expose colleagues that give profession ‘bad name’
O Mike im beginning to love you, lol. RCN he has a point. Is it right that a nurse shouts at a patient down the corridor? but then why is she shouting? maybe it is because the ward is so short staffed she has no option and needs to protect a patient to prevent harm, not because they are uncaring and cant be bothered, so yes, lets sort out the reasons for poor patient care before looking to blame and shame individual nurses.
