So what can we do – are there any solutions to this nursing crisis and what is the impact for patients?
We’ve assembled a panel of health professionals here in Leeds to help us discuss this.
We were joined by:
Professor Nicola Ranger, the General Secretary of the Royal College of Nursing, Dr Billy Palmer, an NHS workforce analyst with the Nuffield Trust, Maxine Wade, a Nursing Associate and Professor Alison Leary, a healthcare workforce modeller.
