- Title
U-turn on overseas nurses.
- Authors
Peate, Ian
- Abstract
The author comments on the decision of British Home Secretary Theresa May to suspend immigration rules that limited the entry of foreign nurses seeking to work in Great Britain. He discusses the Royal College of Nursing's statement that staffing levels have reached a crisis point and the Care Quality Commission's view that poor staffing is a predictor of unsafe patient care. He also discusses the inclusion of nurses in the Shortage Occupation List.
