Welcome to Nursing Matters, the brand new podcast from the Royal College of Nursing.
The pandemic is bringing out the very best in nursing – and reminding the public just how invaluable the profession is. What have we learned from this once-in-a-generation crisis? How can we use that knowledge to make the profession more effective in future? And what kind of new deal do nursing staff deserve after all their efforts?
Every two weeks on Nursing Matters, we’ll bring together experts from the RCN Professional Nursing Committee along with some special guests to talk about what really matters to nursing.
From inspirational innovations and pioneering practice to pay, conditions and health and care policy - we’ll look at it all. And we’ll stand up for nursing all the way.
That’s Nursing Matters – available now wherever you get your podcasts.

The nursing profession has a long history of activism and of advocating for change. This episode of Nursing Matters hears from Professor Dame Anne Marie Rafferty, past RCN President, Professor of Nursing Policy and noted historian. Anne Marie introduces her top nursing heroines, makes the case for industrial action to effect positive change and discusses the links between pay and patient safety.
“Nurses are absolutely crucial in driving access to care, you know, quality and patient outcomes…you can't run a system on goodwill everlastingly.”
“There are times when you have to respond. You just feel in your heart as well as your head. That it's a kind of make-or-break moment. And we've all got to pull together and move forward in lockstep with each other.”
‘’It's not just a battle for patient safety. It's not just a battle for staffing levels. It's also a battle for the survival and the sustainability of the profession’’.
