Increase the wages in line with inflation, high cost of living generally. Many dental nurses have years of experience and aren’t recognised of their hard work at all. It is time this changed all nurses deserve minimum of £20/h
Every clinic needs a dental assistant but they aren’t appreciated. Instead their salaries are very low and they work sometimes 12 hour days on low pay this isn’t right and must change.
