Nurse, you’re not underpaid—you’re under-leveraged.

Get paid for what you know—not just what you do.

You hold a ward together with tape and grit. You juggle unsafe ratios, rota gaps, double-backs, and another “can you just” from three different directions.

You skip breaks. You swallow tears in a sluice room. You carry the risk while others carry on. And after all that, the payslip still says: do more for less.

Unsafe ratios. Missed breaks. Parking fines after a ‘12’.

Take the same clinical judgment you use to keep patients safe and rent it out in short, paid bursts—no rota politics, no corridors, no managers. Just you and a massive payout.

  • Start: one free sign-up, quick verification with your NMC PIN or work ID.

  • Choose: invites land in your inbox; you pick what to do. Pay is shown up-front.

  • Do: most surveys take minutes—fit them into a break, after a shift, or on the sofa.

  • Get: withdraw to bank, PayPal, gift card, or prepaid card. No faff.

Net effect: more outcome you can count on + higher certainty, in less time with less effort.

That’s leverage—not another bank shift.

You know the pains already: standing in for three roles because physio’s short, pharmacy’s delayed and the doctor’s moved on. Clocking out late. “Annual leave declined due to service need.”

Parking fines after a 14-hour “12.” Extra nights to cover childcare. A head that hums when the house is finally quiet. Money won’t fix the NHS—but it will fix the parts of your life that the NHS breaks.

Groceries that don’t need a calculator. The MOT that doesn’t spike your cortisol. A nursery bill that doesn’t bully your overdraft. Saying no to a shift because you can.

That’s what this is about.

What Sermo is (and isn’t)

  • Is: a vetted medical insights platform where UK nurses, doctors, and HCPs are paid for clinical opinions in research surveys.

  • Isn’t: another shift, a uniform, or a manager breathing down your neck.

  • Is: briefs you can read, honoraria you can see, work you can do on your sofa.

  • Isn’t: patient-specific advice. It’s de-identified research. Follow the brief, protect confidentiality.

Here’s the truth you already feel in your bones: price follows value, not volume. Your training, judgment and lived experience have communication value beyond bedside tasks. Steward that value. Let it work for your family while you sleep during the day or sit on a late break.

Five steps. Minutes, not shifts.

How it works

  1. Register free.

  2. Verify HCP status (e.g., NMC PIN / work ID).

  3. Get invites matched to your profile and specialty.

  4. Complete the survey; submit.

  5. Get paid (bank transfer, PayPal, gift card, or prepaid card).

Most medical surveys pay more than generic consumer surveys—many fall in the £10–£85 range, with higher honoraria for niche expertise. Availability varies by specialty and demand. Not promises—vehicles.

Now map the money to your pain:

You’re not chasing “extra.” You’re buying back time. Time to sleep instead of grabbing an unsafe extra. Time to be present at bath-time. Time to recover so you’re not running on fumes on nights. The lift you need to stop choosing between petrol and protein. The margin so your next council tax bill is boring.

Quick results, see the numbers for yourself!

  • 4 surveys at £45 avg this week = £180

  • 8 shorter surveys at £25 avg = £200

  • Mix and seasonality fluctuate. Some weeks more, some less. Your profile and participation determine what shows up.

Common objections—handled straight up:

  • “I’m burnt out.” Good. Do thinking work, not lifting work.

  • “No time.” Surveys fit into small windows: breaks, commute (not driving), post-shift sofa.

  • “Is this safe for my license?” You’re contributing to research, not giving patient-specific advice. Keep confidentiality. Follow the brief.

  • “Hidden fees?” Joining is free. You choose what you accept.

  • “What if it’s not for me?” Then stop. No lock-in, no hard feelings.

Who this is for

  • Nurses who want control, flexibility, and respect for their expertise.

  • Clinicians who prefer quiet, on-your-time work over another exhausting shift.

  • Professionals who understand: input ≠ guaranteed output, but smart vehicles compound.

You’ve done enough hard work. Now do the high-value work. Use the same clinical judgment that keeps patients safe—and let it keep your household safe.

Let the honoraria handle the nursery invoice, the food shop, the petrol, the debt snowball, the flights home, the emergency fund. Let your knowledge start paying you back.

Don’t Take Our Word for it, Listen to What Others are Saying!

Family Cover Secured

“Private family health insurance felt like a luxury we’d never afford. Sermo shifted it into the essentials column, covering premiums every month without denting the household budget. Knowing my loved ones are protected is worth every minute spent on surveys. It’s the best bargain in my diary.”

– L. F. | London

From India to Europe

“I grew up in India thinking a European holiday was for other people. The extra income I earn each month from Sermo surveys, on top of my NHS salary, has paid for city breaks in Paris, Barcelona and Prague without dipping into my savings. Payments land in my UK account in pounds, so booking flights and hotels is effortless. Ten minutes of questions now fund memories that will last a lifetime.”

– R. D. | Broxbourne

Typhoon Recovery Fund

“A typhoon levelled our family home in the Philippines last year. Sermo added roughly £1,200 to my income each month, money that rebuilt walls, replaced furniture and put food on the table while we recovered. My relatives call it a miracle; I call it answering questions on my phone. Either way, it saved us.”

– C. M. | Bristol

Fast-Track to ILR

“Indefinite Leave to Remain fees are steep, yet essential for my future in Britain. By banking every Sermo payout, I’m already over halfway to the required amount—far sooner than my NHS wages alone would allow. Each survey feels like another brick laid toward my long-term security. Becoming a British citizen now looks less like a wish and more like a date in the diary.”

– T. A. | Chippenham

Upgrading My Living Space

“House-sharing was fine at twenty, claustrophobic at thirty. Within six months of joining Sermo I’d saved enough to move into a light, airy one-bed flat and finally shut the door on other people’s mess. Extra survey cash covers the higher rent with room to spare for décor. A simple side gig has bought me privacy and a good night’s sleep.”

– N. O. | Newport

Frequent Flights Home

“Working abroad makes me homesick, but travel isn’t cheap. Thanks to Sermo I visit family in Zimbabwe three or four times a year rather than once, paying cash for tickets and gifts. The side income even cushions my annual leave pay cut. More hugs, fewer worries—that’s the real dividend.”

– M. C. | Peterborough

£1,200 Extra a Month

“A colleague showed me her Sermo dashboard—£1,200 paid in a single month—so I signed up that same evening. Twelve weeks later I hit the same figure myself, all before breakfast shifts. The platform is free to join and pays like clockwork. Side income this smooth feels almost unreal, yet the statements don’t lie.”

– S. M. | Doncaster

Funding My Return Business

“My dream is to go back to Ghana and open a small diagnostics clinic. Every Sermo payment goes straight into a dedicated savings pot that’s growing faster than any bank’s interest. Seeing the balance climb each month turns a distant plan into an approaching reality. This side hustle is literally bringing me home.”

– E. N. | Harrogate

Near-Ready for a Mortgage

“A house deposit once seemed impossible amid soaring prices. Steady Sermo earnings—just a few hundred pounds monthly—have closed the gap fast, and I’m now four paycheques away from exchanging contracts on my first flat. The side gig is small effort, but the impact is life-changing. Home ownership is within touching distance.”

– G. R. | Newcastle upon Tyne

Tackling UK Living Costs

“Council tax, energy bills, visa renewals—the UK cost-of-living crunch is brutal. My Sermo earnings cover those extras so my NHS salary can stretch to saving again. No more choosing between heating and a rail season ticket. Financial breathing space is back on the agenda.”

– D. I. | Brampton

Funding Fertility Treatment

“IVF is emotionally draining and financially brutal. Sermo survey income delivered an extra £1,000 every four weeks, which meant we could opt for the clinic with the highest success rate rather than the cheapest. Those extra embryos stored safely are the most reassuring sight I’ve ever seen under a microscope. The side hustle bought us hope, and that’s priceless.”

– K. Z. | Irvine

First-Class Flights Upgrade

“Long-haul trips to see family in Spain were once an endurance test in economy. After nine months with Sermo, we used survey money to upgrade to first-class pods—full lie-flat beds and lounge access included. The difference in jet-lag recovery was night and day; I arrived ready to chase my nieces round the garden. Even better, I still banked half the month’s payout for a future trip. Comfort truly is a convertible currency.

– I. L. | Middlesbrough

Cash for a New Car

“Saving for a reliable motor felt endless until Sermo came along. In ten months of evening surveys I’d banked the full cost of a nearly-new hatchback, avoiding an expensive loan entirely. Now I commute in comfort and keep my credit score spotless. All from a few spare hours and a Wi-Fi connection.”

– F. Q. | Nottingham

Emergency Fund Guaranteed

“The pandemic taught me how thin our financial cushion really was. Determined never to feel that exposed again, I channel every survey payment straight into a high-yield savings account. Twelve months on, the emergency fund equals four full salary months—comforting proof against any storm. Knowing unexpected costs are covered has reduced my stress level more than meditation ever did. Sermo turned “I hope” into “I’m prepared”.”

– Y. E. | Mansfield

Master’s Degree on Me

“Returning to university for a public-health MSc felt financially reckless until Sermo bridged the gap. Regular survey income has paid each semester’s tuition the moment the invoice landed, sparing me a student loan at forty-five. I can focus on epidemiology readings instead of overtime rotas. Lecturers ask how I’m juggling bills; I tell them Sermo is my secret scholarship. By graduation I’ll hold a degree and zero academic debt—proof that learning never stops and neither does passive income.”

– S. A. | Southport

Zero-Interest Credit Card Hack

“I snagged a 0% balance-transfer card determined to clear £4,000 before interest kicked in, but the timeline was brutal. Sermo’s side income demolished the debt in five months, beating the deadline by a mile. Now the same money rolls into an ISA earning interest for me instead of the bank. Financial advisers preach “earn more, spend less”; Sermo let me do both simultaneously.”

– J. N. | Blackburn

Tech-Friendly at Any Age

“I’m the ward’s “senior” nurse and not exactly a whizz with gadgets, yet registering on Sermo took only minutes. Surveys are straightforward tick-boxes, and the platform guides you through every step. The pay is generous for such little effort—I easily clear £500 a month in my downtime. If I can manage it after a twelve-hour shift, anyone can.”

– T. J. | Barnoldswick

From Skeptic to Believer

“At first I assumed Sermo was just another internet scam. Then £350 hit my bank account five days after my first set of surveys. Seeing those pounds appear converted me from doubter to advocate overnight. I now fund my brother’s engineering course and my sister’s nursing school fees back home—no questions asked.”

– D. B. | Edinburgh

Private School Fees Sorted

“My two sons’ school offered bursaries but not enough to bridge the shortfall. Sermo’s predictable payouts now handle the balance of their fees, covering everything from science labs to the school bus pass. Term invoices no longer trigger late-night calculator sessions. Watching them thrive in smaller classes is worth every survey minute. I’m essentially swapping medical know-how for my children’s opportunities, and that‘s a trade I’ll make all day.”

– C. L. | Norwich

Money in Minutes

“Earning has never been this straightforward: free sign-up, quick medical surveys, cash straight to my account. I average £500–£1,000 each month and sometimes wonder why I still pull double shifts on the ward. Sermo turns spare moments into serious money. It’s the easiest decision I’ve made all year.”

– R. M. | Exeter

Dream Kitchen Build

“Chef’s ovens and quartz worktops were relegated to my Pinterest board—until Sermo bankrolls started to pile up. A year later the kitchen of my dreams is real: boiling-water tap, walk-in larder, the lot. Every time I prepare a meal I’m reminded that spare lunchtime surveys transformed flat-pack drudgery into culinary heaven. Even the contractor asked what “side project” funded such luxe touches; I pointed him to Sermo.”

– A. D. | Ringwood
