"It goes against the grain of every nurse to go on strike"

Good Morning Ulster

Available for over a year

As industrial action by healthcare workers intensifies, a joint letter from the heads of Northern Ireland's six health trusts says they believe "a significant risk to patient safety is likely". Good Morning Ulster hears from one nurse about the Royal College of Nursing's industrial action - the first in its 103 year history - and why she says the decision "hasn't been taken lightly".
