Nesbitt Steps Down as Health Service Reforms Continue | Belfast News

About this episode

Health Minister Mike Nesbitt has resigned amid a clash with UUP leader Jon Burrows over emergency surgery at Causeway Hospital, but his legacy is praised across health bodies for championing clinical voices and steering the health service’s reset. Leaders from the NI Confederation, Royal College of Surgeons, and Royal College of Nursing all laud his efforts to cut waiting lists, support overburdened staff, and advance prevention and tech-driven care — urging his successor to keep momentum alive, especially on critical nursing pay and systemic reform.
