Demands for Nurse Hiring in Public Hospitals
November 26, 2025
Nurses are planning strike actions at public hospitals, demanding the hiring of additional staff. The Cyprus Nurses' Union has already mobilized for immediate measures and has given a deadline of December 9 to the Health Services Organization. They argue that at least 120 new nurses are needed to meet existing needs. Understaffing has reached a level where overtime has become a regular occurrence. If no responses are received by the set date, the unions will decide on their next steps.
