Nurses for Reform
Nurses for Reform is a lobby group which gives the impression that within the nursing profession there is a groundswell of opinion for increased private involvement in the NHS. It is in fact a front group formed by Helen Evans, wife of Dr Tim Evans, who in turn is the director of development of the Stockholm Network and a well connected networker within the world of right-wing neo-liberal think tanks. Apart from the rather small advisory board below Helen Evans is the only name mentioned on their website - throwing into doubt their claim that 'Nurses for Reform (NFR) is a growing pan-European network of nurses'. However their claim that they are 'dedicated to consumer-oriented reform of European healthcare systems' is arguably a euphemism for privatisation of healthcare. This focus on consumer orientated reform of healthcare through the use of markets is identical to the policy preference of the Stockholm Network, of which Nurses for Reform is a member.
