This book sounds a warning bell for the NHS. It paints a very clear picture of the challenges ahead, plugging many of the information gaps which previously made it impossible to pull together a comprehensive overview of the nursing labour market. This publication is no longer available.

In 1993, the Department of Employment introduced a national grant initiative to stimulate the development of out-of-school clubs. This study examines provision in Kent, along with other activities run by Kent Child Care Network and Kent Returners Network. It evaluates the experiences and views of parents and club managers. The report also looks at the experiences of a group of parents and grandparents who attended a parenting skills course.
This report presents the results of the second follow-up of graduates, undertaken in 1997 by IES and the Careers Development Unit of the University of Sussex, covering almost 600 of the graduates who responded to the initial 1995 survey. The study gives further insight into career development and progress in the labour market up to six years after graduation, and shows the extent of change over the last two years in occupation, salaries, types of contract and employment sectors.
Despite recent decline in the numbers of enrolled nurses, they are likely to remain a significant element of the NHS nursing workforce for some time. This report examines issues surrounding the employment of these second-level registrants, their careers and deployment. It points to future problems of under-utilisation of enrolled nurses, and reducing career opportunities. The pressures to convert to first level registration are increasing, but barriers, mostly relating to funding, persist. Reductions in the availability of conversion course places may be both premature and unwise.
