The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Tuesdays

Nurses are calling for something to be done about the financial hurdles they face while finishing their studies.  The Nurses Organisation 2023 Student Survey found 84% feel nursing students should receive financial compensation during clinical experience.   Nurses' Organisation National Student Uni Co-Chair Shannyn Bristowe told Mike Hosking that there needs to be a fix to get students through.  She says scholarships or some form of a grant while students are on their placements could lessen the stress and help put food on the table.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
