title: The dilemma of 'them' and 'us'.
abstract: It would seem that Pamela Chari wood, Director of the Institute of Health Service Management, cannot or will not believe the evidence before her (Letters, Nursing Standard July 17). If she'd read all the articles by Catherine Williams et al in Nursing Standard on why nurses leave the profession, she would have seen that it is indeed a question of 'them' and 'us', and very much so.
