ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ responds to an announcement from the Department of Health and Social Care about one-off payments for more healthcare workers

Press Release 25/03/2024

Responding to DHSC's announcement about one-off payments for more healthcare workers, RCN Director for England Patricia Marquis said:

ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥œAfter a year of campaigning, this progress is a huge leap forward. They deliver NHS care and deserve the same treatment.

ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥œWe will ask for assurance that the financial amounts are worth the same. Nursing staff providing publicly funded care, on whatever contracts, must be paid this award. Waiting for 12 months added insult to injury and the Department must learn never to repeat this.ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥
