I know Margaret I was an Auxiliary for eight years working on geriatric wards. I usually undertaking most of duties the EN would normally do. Things where fine until they introduced the Grading scheme and then everyone got all professional, the Royal Collage and the protection of title issues arose again. Overnight I was reduced from an equivalent Grade “C” to a Grade “A” and a lot of the work we use to do went undone due to the lack up take of Qualified Geriatric vacancies.

Today I work as an advisor to the private care sector and earn the equivalent of a Grade E Nurse, I’m not bragging but it’s a indictment of how the NHS as failed to keep pace with reality.
