The action is expected to take place before Christmas
NHS trusts across Nottinghamshire have said they are working to ensure there is minimal disruption for patients during upcoming nurse strikes. On Wednesday Royal College of Nursing members at four Nottinghamshire NHS organisations voted in favour of industrial action over pay, which is expected later this year.
Responding to the announcement, a spokesperson for NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire said: “While pay is a matter for Government and the trade unions, we value our staff and want to see a resolution as soon as possible to ensure we can continue to focus on delivering the very best care to the public in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.“We value our staff and understand the importance of good pay and conditions for individuals and their families.
Members have voted to strike for the first time in the union’s 106-year history. The industrial action is expected to take place before Christmas. The union represents almost half a million nurses, healthcare assistants and midwives in the UK. Around two thirds of all nurses are members.
