Description

Pay, legislation on the use of the nurse title and a fitness to practise case feature in the latest episode of the Nursing Standard podcast.

Content editor Alistair Mason and senior journalist Shruti Sheth Trivedi discuss the issues getting nurses talking, including changes to pensions and how it will soon be a criminal offence for someone to claim they are a nurse if they are unregistered.
