Step up the pressure

Article Abstract:

The turnout for the UKCC elections is usually poor, however, the nursing unions are campaigning vigorously for votes because the elected council will wield considerable power over the the future of the nursing profession. Unison and the RCN are competing against each other to win seats, and Unison is taking out advertisements and printing leaflets to spread its message. The main difference between the two bodies is their stance on the deregulation of nursing. Unison wants to introduce NVQs as part of the nursing qualification while the RCN is opposed to the idea.
