The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) says nursing staff are collapsing and patients are being harmed during extreme heat, citing a string of this summer’s heatwaves. The union pointed to temperatures above 35C in Wales and 38.1C in Kew Gardens, calling August 13 the hottest day of the year so far. RCN said it received multiple reports from staff who lack air conditioning, fans, or even windows that open, with some hospital wards and offices regularly exceeding 30C indoors. A nurse in an NHS endoscopy ward reported 35C while the air-conditioning unit was broken. RCN urged an urgent heat-proofing programme and said staff safety is at risk.
