An update from the RCN on our use of X. bit.ly/3w0oSAe
ALT We have committed as an organisation to be fully inclusive, anti-racist and anti-discriminatory. We have decided an active presence on X is now at odds with our organisational values and we have taken the decision to no longer post on this channel. If you are a member or are interested in the work of the RCN, please follow us on other social media channels.

🆕 | Burnout, low staffing levels and increasing patient need, are forcing staff to quit early, not long after registration.
With more staff leaving and fewer joining, this is a perfect storm which threatens patient care.

ALT Since 2021 there has been a 43% rise in nurses quitting within 10 years (RCN analysis of NMC data showing nurses leaving the register)

Nurses are intelligent, insightful, and solutions focused. Their concerns should have been heard in the pandemic.
This week at the COVID-19 Inquiry, @gallagher_rose highlighted the repeated failures of the UK government to engage with the nursing profession and use their expertise in the country's response to the outbreak.
