Health bill amendment a significant victory for nursing

Top-table seat secured for nursing in foundation trusts in England

New Health Bill amendment a ‘significant victory’ to safeguard nurse leadership in NHS decision making, says RCN

RCN General Secretary and Chief Executive Professor Nicola Ranger, said: “This is a significant victory for nursing, safeguarding its seat at the top table of NHS foundation trusts. It maintains the existing legal requirement which the government had previously intended to scrap. We have fought hard for this amendment, and it is a breakthrough moment with the government listening to our calls to ensure board level nurse leadership is protected."
