The results uncovered:
- 48% of nurses and carers still have inadequate PPE at work
- 42% believe they may have contracted COVID-19 already through work
- 58% said mental health support either wasn’t a priority, or inadequate, at their workplace
- 62% haven’t turned down any work during the crisis
- 52% are more proud of being a nurse or carer during the crisis
