Some nurses from abroad have so much deducted in fees and dubious charges for agents’ expenses they are left with just £5 a week.

The Government must investigate this worrying claim.

Proper rewards are essential to maintain motivation and keep standards up.

Nowhere is that more important than in the NHS.

How is it the NHS are being blamed when these people are being ripped off by agents? could it be that they really arent qualified and are getting the job under false pretences or is it as bad as the report says?
what a load of s''t, to put it bluntly, I work for the nursing profesion and believe me they get more perks than most british do. I mean when our '' people from abroad'' began working at our place they were quite happy to let us know just how far our establishment had gone to provide housing for these people, then to top it all off when we asked to be paid more at weekends so that our staff would take more shifts instead of having to employ angency workers they said '' we cant afford to do this'' come on who is better off here?"????
