NHS PROPPED UP BY UNPAID NURSE HOURS

ONE in 20 nurses does around £7,000 worth of annual unpaid overtime to keep patients safe, research reveals.

They told an NHS England staff survey they worked at least 11 hours for free every week.

It comes as Royal College of Nursing members at 176 trusts and other NHS organisations are due to strike.

Labour says the health service has become dependent on the goodwill of overworked staff.

Shadow Health Secretary Wes Streeting reckons the cost of unpaid overtime to the 537,577 nurses, doctors and paramedics in England is more than £1billion a year.
