Said Chikobvu: > Nurses are not in any way using patients as pawns but simply calling for a decent wage that can capacitate them to deliver high-class healthcare to the general citizenry. > Nurses are bio-psychosocial beings who can be affected negatively or positively by socioeconomic factors. > We as nurses are calling on the government to address our plight to cushion us so that we can afford basic needs. Chikobvu bemoaned the paltry salaries earned by nurses which he said they are insufficient for a decent living. He implored Chiwenga to appreciate nurses’ concerns and address their plight urgently. *More: NewsDay* itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
