"Why do doctors and nurses no longer have..."

About: Royal Oldham Hospital

What could be improved

Why do doctors and nurses no longer have to wear ID/name badges? My relative has has a notice with his named nurse at the bottom of his bed, the nurse had to be pointed out to me after I asked which one she was. There was one nurse wearing ID out of about 6 on the ward.
