Members ready to leave the country for better opportunities if needs are not met

Nearly a dozen executives of The Bahamas Nurses Union (BNU) staged a protest in front of Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) Wednesday, as the union demanded more benefits for nurses, a better working environment and industrial goodwill.

The BNU also accused Health Minister Dr. Duane Sands of being all talk and no action.
