Rejected petition banding system across the dental sector so dental nurses are nolonger exploited

This is NOT a petition for personal gain! It is for dental nurses to gain the recongnition for all the hard work they put in. Dentist do not reflect this in general dental practices and like general nurses/physiotherapist we would like to be heard for all what we do.

More details

The BDA have developed a pay scale sheet but this is not being taken into consideration when dental nurses are being employed and because there is no legal framework dentist/employers can get away with it. It makes hard working individuals not want to carry on doing something they enjoy. And we all feel this should be recognised. The number of signatures will prove how highly unappreciated dental nurses are.....
