papajo, I agree we should do the tasks our line managers expect if it is within our job role. What I was pointing out was that a small number of nurses armed with degrees felt that it wasn't down to them to do the basic core nursing duties like change beds, wipe patients bums etc. As Robert has said making nursing a degree entry profession benefitted them, but did it benefit the patient?
My wife felt that constant battles with a few arrogant newly qualified nurses/student nurses to do the job they were employed to do just wasn't worth the hassle.
Graham is right, when I submit my application to HPC for SRCS it will cost me £300, if it gets approved I will then get charged £70 per year. Join the VRCT while u still have the chance.
