“More than 200 posts are vacant in all services, of which more than 100 are in the Nursing Service. We have reached the point where there is a nurse on the night shift” says the president of the Union, Vassilis Mouratidis, noting that few permanent staff have been hired in recent years, while the few auxiliary staff hired during the pandemic period are not enough to cover the retirements of the last three years .
