Description
Hundreds of thousands of nurses across the UK are going on strike. The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) said the strike will affect the majority of NHS employers as nurses take action against pay levels and patient safety concerns. Patients who are already facing record waiting lists are now likely to see operations and appointments delayed or cancelled, though emergency care will continue. On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson hears from two nurses about day-to-day life in the NHS and Billy Palmer, from health think tank The Nuffield Trust, on why NHS frontline staff are quitting in record numbers. Plus, Sky News’ Health correspondent Ashish Joshi on the government's response to the pay disputes.Editor - Philly Beaumont Podcast producer - Rosie Gillott Interviews producer – Alys Bowen Digital producer - David Chipakupaku
