Closed NHS Dental nurses to be entitled to an NHS pension

Closed on

Give all Dental nurses working within a practice with an NHS contract the same pension rights as other NHS workers.

Dental nurses are working alongside Dentists whom have an NHS contract, this contract entitles them to an NHS pension. However, Dental nurses do not receive an NHS pension.

Dental nurses believe this issue should be taken seriously as they are considered ‘Key Workers’. This has shown to be the case especially through the COVID-19 pandemic. Dental nurses should be entitled to the same pension rights as other NHS workers.
