@CorkAirport what has happened here your lounge has gone from 5 ⭐️ to 0 ⭐️ very disappointing. I feel sorry for the staff. #kinsalelounge 🤦‍♀️

Are you a Learning Disability Nurse who is no longer registered with the NMC? Would you be happy to discuss your experiences with us for our important research into the RNLD role. See contact details below for further info. Please also share with your networks !

The new profiles are the product of a lengthy review, in which the NHS Staff Council found job descriptions were often outdated, making it likely many nursing staff are underpaid for what they do.

@CldtWirral @FoxfieldSchool Good luck I have happy memories working with the team there 35 years ago #proudtobeanurse

@alisonleary1 @ChrisElston1912 Might be an idea if CNO s got behind this with the support of the RCN !

[Maria Nelligan 💙 @Nell1Maria]

@ShirtyPhil @alisonleary1 In addition I would suggest the process is clinically led and not solely a HR agenda

[Maria Nelligan 💙 @Nell1Maria]

@alisonleary1 @dean_susi Good to see reform of A4C and it is essential all bands are treated with the same respect to enable a clear clinical progression for nurses I fear we will sort B5 and ignore the rest because of austerity

[Maria Nelligan 💙 @Nell1Maria]

@AlisonSchofie10 @GMMH_NHS @GmmhJo Yes all good 🙏🏻

I was privileged to contribute to the national Lampard inquiry ,
today at the @theRCN Congress I am even more concerned about the future of all nursing with the potential reduction in oversee recruitment and the impact this will have on patient safety #proudtobeanurse
