I never thought I’d have to contemplate leaving my dream job after years of training, but after 18 wks off sick and being on £14 an hour as an NHS ICU nurse I’m now looking to leave my job to work agency as it pays more so I can afford weekly counselling for my PTSD. #NHSpay15

Why are people up in arms about health workers going on strike but there’s no concern for unsafe staffing numbers that we work with EVERY SINGLE DAY? Patient safety, fair pay and safe staffing are a triangular issue, they all fit together.

Let’s be clear here when our PM doesn’t care about NHS staff and the #NHSStaffingCrisis , he’s also announcing that he doesn’t care about patient safety. This is us and them. Our own Govt doesn’t care about YOUR health. #NHS

@PetronellaWyatt Just because you don’t think someone’s intention was racism doesn’t mean it wasn’t racism and the fact that you’ve even bothered to defend her instead of trying to understand the situation from the persons point of view who experienced the racism speaks volumes if I’m honest.

I can earn £28 in a care home as an agency nurse? Why can’t I expect to earn £25 as an NHS ICU nurse? Because we are undervalued #NHS

@Katynurse27 No Katy but you cannot expect to be earning £25 per hour

Let’s combat the misinformation. Nursing Associate at Band 4. #NHS #Nursing I will post a link below but NAs are often utilised as RNs and the Govt included them in our ‘new’ nurse numbers disingenuously.

At my local vaccination centre we had a letter go out in December saying we had delivered as a team, more than 1.6 million life-saving vaccines. How amazing is that? #Success #VaccinesWork #NHS #Vaccination

Dressing up the ward for a visit from the CQC needs to stop. Did the duty of candour disappear? Why are we pretending everything’s fine? Everyone forgot Mid Staffs? #NHS

As of now, there are currently 78 unfilled RN shifts on Monday in the NHS trust I work at. 78 missing nurses for one 24 hour period. #NHS #NHSPay15

Boris Johnson should resign. RT if you agree.

As usual BBC bias on #bbclaurak berating Pat Cullen of @theRCN but actually no comment on the fact that the Health Secretary @SteveBarclay only speaks to the media and not the nursing leaders. He’s more interested in his quotes in the Torygraph. #NHS

Well it looks like we are well on track the 50,000 new nurses Boris promised.. Oh sorry, I meant a shortage of 50,000 nurses. #ToryBritain

Rishi says they are taking URGENT action by creating 7,000 more hospital beds. No mention of the nursing staff we are already missing. No mention of the staff for said 7,000 beds. No mention of the crisis they’ve created. #NHSCrisis

The most unlawful government in my lifetime is probably going to attempt to take my whole profession (NHS) to court for being ‘unlawful’. Hypocrisy at its finest. #NHSCrisis #Nursing

@SteveBarclay @theRCN But you gladly stood by and watched patient care erode year on year. I’m ashamed of this government.

Well another nurse/friend just informed me they’ve left their FT NHS post to take a better paid position elsewhere. Reinstated expensive daily parking fees (£16.40), unsafe working environments, reduced bank nursing rates. What is there to miss? #NHSCrisis

When the Health Secretary blames the NHS crisis on the pandemic don’t fall for it. This is multi factorial but it was inevitable after 12 years of Tory mismanagement and underfunding. #NHSCrisis
