  2. advice from fellow nurses

    Fonenurse replied to linda scottish nurse's topic in International Nursing

    Fonenurse replied to razzberry's topic in International Nursing

  4. advice from fellow nurses

    Fonenurse replied to linda scottish nurse's topic in International Nursing

    Fonenurse replied to cleo's topic in Nurse Management

    Fonenurse replied to sweetpealoubylou's topic in International Nursing

    Fonenurse replied to Fonenurse's topic in International Nursing

  9. Do Nurses make the worst visitors?...

    Fonenurse replied to Whisper's topic in International Nursing

  10. Getting Along- The Union Debate

    Fonenurse replied to mobilsurgrn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Fonenurse replied to avery's topic in Nursing Career

  17. So how far on with AfC is your organisation?

    Fonenurse posted a topic in International Nursing

    So how far has your trust got with AfC? Have you had your backpay? Do you have a KSF profile? Have you had a shadow appraisal and developed a personal development

  18. Afc (ksf Review)

    Fonenurse replied to paris2's topic in International Nursing

    I think managers are really wary of KSF as the gateways have a financial attachment - your pay increment and this is quite a responsibility for them. As madwife says, she could just be very unsure...

    Fonenurse replied to joolsc's topic in International Nursing
