MORE lucrative pay packets offered by hospitals in England could be tempting potential staff away from vacant posts in Raigmore Hospital?s oncology department.

The admission came this week from NHS Highland chairman Garry Coutts in the wake of concerns from a senior doctor that cancer services in Inverness are in crisis.

The problem centres on filling two consultant oncologist posts, although there are also difficulties in recruitment to radiation and medical physics roles.
