Health care worker burnout rising sharply: “Every day we’re expected to do more in less time”
Data from the third NurseGrid survey was recently released, showing that nurses’ sense of well-being has significantly declined throughout the pandemic. Notably, rates of self-reported burnout swelled to 61 percent, a sharp increase from 25 percent in September. The December survey results also show that more than 20 percent of nurses report that they plan to leave bedside nursing or leave nursing entirely by 2021.
The recent data compiles survey answers from December 9-18, 2020. The aim of the third survey was to update the first two surveys (completed in April and September of 2020) and draw out trends in nurses’ mental health as the pandemic continues to rage.

Students at Coleg Cambria are supporting a hedgehog sanctuary battling a dramatic spike in deaths of the much-loved creatures.

In partnership with Hedgehog Help Prestatyn (HHP), they have been caring for them in a converted room which can hold eight of the popular prickly animals at any one time, providing warmth, shelter and regular meals.
And their efforts are much needed; this time last year, HHP had more than 80 hedgehogs to look after. At present, they only have 20.
