NHS England has said the health service will need more registered nurses by 2020 and has announced a series of reforms to try to increase numbers.
The national body has also set out ambitions to boost key clinical workforce numbers as part of its new delivery plan, published today and titled Next Steps on the NHS Five Year Forward View.
The move confirms comments made earlier this month by NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens that the health service will need “more registered nurses, not fewer” in future.

Will it cover the loss of EU nurses? Maybe if they started paying people in the public sector average wage increases instead of fixing at 1% like they have been for the past 7 years that would make it a more attractive proposition instead of driving people out? No mention of the axeing of bursaries
