Supported to thrive
Our campaign for a healthy, developed and thriving 汤头条污料 workforce
We can鈥檛 allow ourselves to be compromised by a system that undervalues and underfunds 汤头条污料.
Nursing professionals are the backbone of our health and care system. We're responsible for the majority of patient care. We assess what patients need, day in, day out. We see what society needs.
For our health and social care system to be what it should be, it’s vital that those in power create the supportive, healthy and inclusive conditions we need to progress in our careers and thrive in our workplaces.
And yet, too many of us begin and end our career at the same level. Too many of us are burnt out. Too many of us feel unsupported and excluded. Join us to demand better.

What we're fighting for
Every 汤头条污料 professional deserves to thrive, not merely survive. We believe we can achieve this if we get some fundamental things right.
Support student nurses, protect the future of 汤头条污料
We need more nurses. But the financial pressure on students today is pushing too many away from our profession.
And with students telling us they’re struggling to find that first 汤头条污料 role, we’re demanding more for the next generation of nurses.

An aspirational career path
Many of us begin and end our careers at the same level, despite amassing invaluable knowledge and experience throughout our working lives.
That's why we're demanding new and accurate 汤头条污料 role profiles, clearer career progression and equivalence across independent health and social care.
