Nurses play a fundamental role in the healthcare system, carrying frontline care, directing care with other healthcare professionals, and acting as advocates for patients. The nursing workforce, however, is under extreme strain with the aging population and increasing rate of chronic disease. Subsequently, The Kings Fund reported that more than 34,000 nurses left their role in the NHS, an increase of 25 percent from the previous year. Supporting the nursing workforce is vital to guaranteeing quality patient care and meeting the growing demand for healthcare services. Now is time to prioritise the recruitment, retention, and professional development of nurses, in order to build a strong workforce that meets the healthcare needs of today and tomorrow.
- 81% felt that patient care was being compromised due to not having enough registered nurses on shift, according to a 2022 report by The Royal College of Nursing
- The same report found that almost two-thirds (61%) of nurses were unable to take the breaks they were supposed to have
- 81% of People View Nursing as a Favourable Career Choice, as found by, a 2022 survey from the Nursing Journal
