Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust

You will have seen the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) has announced that nursing staff at some NHS employers across the UK have voted to take strike action over pay levels and patient safety concerns.

At Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust, the 50% ballot threshold was not reached.

In light of this, we can confirm that our nurses will not be taking industrial action at this time and our services will continue as normal.

If you wish to cancel or change your appointment, rather than telephoning please let us know by completing the online form
