Nursing and Midwifery student’s contribution in health crisis to be recognised – Gildernew

Sinn Féin MLA Colm Gildernew has welcomed the announcement that student nurses will continue to be paid at the higher rate which they were entitled to tackling COVID-19.

The party’s health spokesperson said:

“For many students nearing the completion of their studies the call to help in the fight against COVID-19, though challenging, was one they answered.

“I am glad the Department of Health has recognised this contribution and continued paying students the higher rate of pay until they can register post-graduation.

“It is vital to recognise the invaluable effort and courage that many students stepped forward and entered the workforce at a time of an unprecedented public health pandemic.”

Sinn Féin will bring a Motion to the Dáil on Tuesday to put a stop to Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael's indefensible waste of €9 million for phone pouches.

Please contact your TDs and tell them that you won't tolerate this waste of taxpayers money. They must reverse this decision.

The General Election is near and a choice awaits. You can call time on the crises in housing, healthcare & the cost of living.

Vote for a government that works for you, your family & your community. And if you give us the opportunity that’s the government Sinn Féin will deliver.
