Webinar: Should you be a band 3?
28 Mar 2024, 16:00 - 17:00
Choose event information:
There are important differences between band 2 and 3 roles in the NHS.
Band 2 roles should be non-clinical and focus on personal care and support. They include:
- Undertaking personal care duties
- Supporting with toileting, bathing and dressing
- Supporting with meals
- Recording fluid balance and nutrition
Band 3 roles also include delegated clinical care tasks, such as:
- Taking blood pressure
- Monitoring blood glucose
- Observing wounds
- Dressing simple wounds
- Removing catheters
- Urine testing
- Pregnancy testing
Unfortunately, we believe that many band 2 nursing staff members have been left without the career progression and pay increases your role deserves. This is unacceptable and the RCN is fighting for the pay and recognition you deserve.
Join band 2 nursing colleagues from across NHS employers in England to hear about how this change came about and what we can do, together to see every RCN member on the right band.
To take part in the webinar, please join our Teams call at 4pm on 28 March.
