RCN says Manx Care must do more to retain and attract staff
A nursing union which represents Manx medical staff has raised concerns about government's plan to grow the population.
The Royal College of Nursing says to retain – and attract – nurses Manx Care needs to pay them better.
Earlier this week the union revealed that 55.5 per cent of members balloted about a recent four per cent pay offer were prepared to consider taking strike action.
Government's 15-year-strategy sets out plans for 100,000 residents by 2037 – but Carmel O'Boyle, the chair of RCN’'s North West regional board, says that needs careful consideration:
Ramsey residents 'shocked' at Looneys closure announcement
Two Manx high schools told to stop operating CCTV 'inside' toilets
King Gaming's license suspended amidst criminal investigation
Hopes new unit will reduce amount of time patients spend in hospital
Boxing: Burden hungry for glory on pro debut
Housing, VAT, climate and tourism among concerns raised by the East in government roadshow
