Background
All nurses, doctors, and carers form a single interconnected team, and every role is crucial to maintaining the health and wellbeing of the nation. Favouring one group over another fails to recognise how these professions depend on one another to keep services functioning. Extending the five-year ILR pathway to all professions within the sector is morally right, economically sensible, and supports continuity of care, and aligns with the principles of equality and gratitude that the UK upholds.
