Nurses in Ondo State has urged the state government to address the disparity in salaries between nurses and doctors, warning that the existing inequality could lead to unrest within the health sector.

This appeal was made during the 2024 Ondo Nurses Week/Scientific Conference, held in Akure on Wednesday, under the theme “Our Nurses, Our Future: The Economic Power of Care.”

Led by the National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives (NANNM), Ondo State Chapter, the nurses expressed concerns over the recent adjustment of doctors’ salaries without similar consideration for other healthcare workers.

Speaking at the event, Akintobi Orobode, the state chairman of NANNM, called on the government to review the salary structure for nurses and other health professionals to match the federal standard, just as it has been done for doctors.

“Two months ago, we learned that doctors’ salaries were adjusted to align with the Federal Government’s standard, but the Consolidated Health Salary Structure, which covers nurses and other healthcare workers, was ignored. This creates inequality and discord,” Orobode stated.

He emphasised the crucial role nurses play in patient care, noting that nurses spend more time with patients, often working 24-hour shifts, which exposes them to greater risks from patients or their families.

“When nurses are not available, doctors cannot function effectively, and vice versa. This is why we are calling on the government to take swift action before the situation escalates,” Orobode added.

While commending Governor Aiyedatiwa for his previous support of the nursing profession, Orobode expressed optimism that the government would act on their demands. He noted that a formal letter had been submitted to the governor, and the association awaits a response.

In response to the nurses’ concerns, the Special Adviser on Health Matters, Prof. Simidele Odimayo, reassured the group that the state government is actively reviewing the salary structure for all healthcare workers to bring it in line with federal standards.

“The review is ongoing, and Governor Aiyedatiwa is committed to ensuring the welfare and satisfaction of all health workers,” Odimayo affirmed.

Additionally, the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Banji Ajaka, represented by the Permanent Secretary, Dr. Niran Ikuomola, encouraged the nurses to continue engaging with the Ministry of Health. He assured them that the government is committed to resolving their concerns and maintaining harmony within the health sector.
