Nurses run ragged and overworked - NOT

"Nurses run ragged and overworked - NOT"

About: University Hospital Of North Durham

I am not saying all nurses are the same but the majority of them I found whilst I was in hospital were busy doing nothing, gossiping making arrangement for nights out etc. whilst patients were buzzing and needing help. Patients dare not say too much otherwise you get the cold shoulder. Also I find it very rude when nurses are discussing with patients about the General Election and that they have not had a pay rise in ten years (which is untrue) also what they won't be and aren't getting. Are they not aware that patients have their own views on government . I find most nurses now are very forward, cheeky and unprofessional.
