Welcome to Nursing Matters, the brand new podcast from the Royal College of Nursing. This week, the widespread anger over the Government’s derisory 1% pay offer to the NHS. How can the profession win the pay rise it deserves? Plus, how is the vaccine rollout going on the ground? We talk to clinical co-ordinator at the Newport Mass Vaccination Centre Lou Cahill about the scale of the task and how to combat vaccine disinformation.
“Pay is a tangible reflection of the value placed on a profession”– Rachel Hollis
“We’re constantly told that ‘there’s money in the coffers’. Well I’m no economist but I know that the NHS doesn’t work like a housekeeping tin.” – Alison Leary
The vaccine roll-out feels a lot like flying a plane while the plane is still being built.” – Lou Cahill
