Need more nurses

ScoTTISh nurses are now ringing the alarm bells about being understaffed and overworked owing to the progressive cut-backs being applied to NhS Scotland which is now taking its toll on nursing morale.

From my personal experience in hospital the work done by nurses is excellent but they are pushed to the limits for patient care and the endless paperwork that goes with the job.

The SNP administration is, as usual, in complete denial and quick to produce statistics showing that the nurses are wrong.

Who can you believe these days as to the facts in the matter? DeNNis Forbes GrattaN, aberdeen.
