  • Unison, which represents NHS staff from nurses and midwives to pharmacists, porters and admin staff, warns the plans will not work without 'sufficient' staff

The article from MSN discusses the demands of nurses and midwives for better pay to support Labour leader Keir Starmer's new NHS plan. The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) and the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) have expressed that without improved compensation, the NHS workforce will continue to face retention issues, which could undermine the effectiveness of Starmer's proposed reforms. The plan includes increasing appointments, scans, and operations, but union leaders argue that these goals are unattainable without addressing the current staffing crisis. They emphasize the need for a significant pay rise to retain and attract healthcare professionals, highlighting that the current pay levels are not competitive enough to prevent staff from leaving the profession or moving abroad. The unions are calling for a government commitment to better wages as part of any comprehensive NHS recovery strategy.
