Pay cuts and uniforms: what’s getting nurses talking this week?


Listen Later

Cuts to bank shift pay, incorrect insulin administration and an investigation into nursing uniforms – our latest podcast delves into the issues that are getting nurses talking.


This week, Nursing Standard content editor Alistair Mason and senior journalist Shruti Sheth Trivedi bring you insights on nursing headlines that have caught our attention. They also discuss RCNi subscriber content, including when mental health nurses should wear a uniform.


In our most-read news story of the week so far, nurses express their anger at plans to cut bank pay at four NHS trusts. In another story, a coroner flagged concerns by a specialist diabetes nurse about how ward nurses were administering insulin to a patient who later died.


In other news, the Queen’s Nursing Institute has announced a big change to its executive team, while a new RCNi investigation looks into nurses’ uniforms and when they should be worn in certain settings.


Finally, a CPD article explores the role of nurses in managing patients with mpox. Nurses can take a quiz on the topic to gain a CPD certificate.

You can see these subscriber pieces, and much more, from just £5.25 a month with RCNi Plus.
