Nurse staffing levels unsafe, says Safe Staffing Alliance

Senior nurses have issued an "unprecedented warning" about hospital ward staffing levels in England.

The Safe Staffing Alliance says hospital wards regularly have each registered nurse looking after eight patients - which they say is unsafe.

The group, which includes the Royal College of Nursing, Unison and the Patients Association, says safe nursing levels have been ignored for too long.
