Our podcast also discusses free tea and coffee being scrapped for staff at an NHS trust, and the dos and don’ts for nursing uniforms

Bank shift concerns and an attack on hot drinks

An NHS trust’s decision to restrict bank shifts as part of a cost-cutting exercise is one of the main topics discussed in the latest episode of the Nursing Standard podcast.

Also under the spotlight is news of a chief nurse being reinstated to her role in a ‘landmark’ win following her suspension, and free tea and coffee being scrapped for staff at another NHS organisation.

RCNi content editor Alistair Mason, and senior journalists Shruti Sheth Trivedi and Alison Stacey also discuss the dos and don’ts for nursing uniforms, and evidence-based approaches to delivering person-centred nursing care for individuals who are overweight or obese.
