[MaulaJatt]

NHS nurses are truly the unsung heroes of UK health system. I remain astounded what they have been through and nothing in reality has been done to support them. A payrise that is worthless with rising inflation and promises that are just words from our government. Shame on BJ and his cronies .
NHS thank you so much 🙏👏👏👏

A community nurse interview would be great 👍 more scenario based questions and answers would be really useful eg what would you do if a patient had a hypo with you, how would you handle an aggressive family member, you go to a patient's home they are housebound and you know they should be in but there's no answer and they don't have a key safe what would you do? Etc etc thanks so much
