Nursing Institute praises Island's ethos
Nurses in the Isle of Man are valued more highly than their UK counterparts, according to an industry body.
The Queen's Nursing Institute spent last week meeting staff and patients here, where it praised the level of 'passion and community spirit' evident in the Manx system.
It comes a week after unions confirmed a 2.5% pay rise for Island nurses, pending ministers' approval.
The Institute's Chief Executive, Dr Crystal Oldman, says that's good news:
Peel commissioner claims transparency concerns being "shut down"
Katryna Baptist claims decisions "missing" from official records alongside communication and conflict concerns
Fire fighters respond to numerous issues across the Island
Safety advice is now being issued to residents
MNFU calls for stronger legislation to protect livestock
Farmers continuing to face threat of dog attacks
Youth committee keen to see fewer young people leaving the Island
Panel recently gained support for its report on access to housing
