Registered nurses asked to help staff Noble's in Manx Care plea

The hospital is 'struggling with staffing due to high levels of sickness'

Manx Care is calling for any available registered nurses to work at Noble's Hospital today.

In a plea on social media, the body is asking anyone qualified to call the Switchboard on 650000 to confirm their availability.

They are struggling to staff the hospital "due to high levels of sickness" in the workforce.

Last week, government asked people to consider where they are accessing health care, as the Health and Social Care Minister declared that extreme pressures on the Island's health service are being caused by an abnormally high number of flu infections.

‼️ Calling all Registered Nurses‼️
If any Registered Nurses are available to work tomorrow at Noble’s, please call Switchboard to confirm your availability (650000). We’re struggling with staffing due to high levels of sickness - your help would be much appreciated. Thank you! pic.twitter.com/JYiUwLN95F
