Celebrating our nurses on International Nurses’ Day
International Nurses’ Day takes place on 12 May and celebrates the contribution that nurses make to society around the world on 12 May every year, the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth.
We’re celebrating all of our 3018 nurses and thank each and every one for their commitment and dedication. They do an amazing job delivering outstanding care to our patients. Their resilience and commitment is incredible.
Our International Nurses’ Day Conference takes place today and gives us an opportunity to bring some of our nursing colleagues together as a celebration and thank you for the contribution they make ensuring our patients receive high quality care.
Throughout the day we will be sharing stories about our fantastic nurses, examples of the care they have provided and what nursing means to them.
