Let's grow up
Article Abstract:
Nursing students feel that they are often still treated like children, even though many changes are being made in the way nurses are trained in order to empower future nurses. The traditional medical hierarchy is starting to break down, but there are still many fears and restrictive roles which are inhibiting the growth of the nursing profession. Students are reluctant to express imaginative ideas, and feel that positive change will not take place untl an atmosphere of trust, active facilitation and encouragement is created.

Occupational health works
Article Abstract:
There is a need for greater resources for occupational health in the UK. The government has shown awareness of the significance of occupational but its publications show little positive action on making a contribution to the health of the nation. People spend most of their time at their place of work, which presents an ideal situation for the promotion of health.

Nurses deserve equal treatment
Article Abstract:
The UK government is currently not treating nurses in all parts of the country equally. Nurses in the South East are receiving additional payments to compensate for high living costs, but the cost of living is also high in other parts of the country. It is now time for all nurses to be paid enough to afford decent accommodation.
