A recruitment drive is on the way to find almost 30 extra nurses for Noble's hospital.
Health chiefs say the move will save the department half a million pounds a year - because it will no longer have to employ bank and agency nurses.

The move comes as the government head count is being reduced across the board, after Health Minister Howard Quayle persuaded the Council of Ministers substantial savings could be made.
The department's new Executive Director for Health Michaela Morris says using bank nurses has been very expensive:
