Why the RCN Forums matter

Following the changes to this year’s RCN Congress, we look at what steps the College is taking to deal with serious allegations of sexual harassment. Plus, we hear from Sally Bassett, the Chair of the Forum Chairs Committee, about the vital work that forums do for the RCN and the nursing profession at large. Nursing Matters is presented by PNC chair Rachel Hollis and PNC member Mary Codling.

But there are challenges to nurses in seeing ourselves as leaders.” – Sally Bassett “There's an assumption because we're a caring profession that we care for each other and ourselves. But that isn't always the case.” – Sally Bassett “A significant part of nursing is problem solving.” – Sally Bassett Presented by Rachel Hollis. Audio production by Alex Rees.
