Closed petition Fund paid rest breaks for all NHS nursing staff

Currently many NHS nursing staff are working 12 hour shifts, with unpaid rest breaks. Fund the NHS to pay them their rest time.

More details

I have been in a NHS hospital for over two months recovering from major life threatening surgery. The nursing care I have received has been extraordinary. Our nurses work extremely hard. Please provide funding to value their worth and at least pay them while they recharge.
