Rejected petition To pay student nurses whom are on placement during the Pandemic.

To enforce wages for the students currently on placement during the Pandemic of COVID19.

Student Nurses are essential part of the team when it comes to providing care needs to patients, and during this Pandemic as much help is needed as possible.

More details

Student nurses want to help. They're putting themselves and their families at risk in order to help. The least that could be done is they get paid for their hard work and committment.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Student placements are a matter for the educational institutions the student is enrolled in, the organisation sponsoring the placement, and the regulatory bodies that are responsible for the qualifications, not the Government or Parliament.

If you have concerns about continuing with a placement you should raise these with the educational institution you are enrolled in, the organisation sponsoring your placement, and the relevant regulatory body.
