Happy International Nurses’ Day

Today, we’re celebrating the incredible contribution of nursing in the UK and across the world.

 

Nursing is a safety-critical global profession; strengthening it anywhere strengthens the profession everywhere. By standing in global solidarity, we can raise the profile of nursing and ensure its impact is recognised worldwide.

 

Today, we celebrate International Nurses Day and champion a brighter future for nursing and health care globally.

 

Fun fact – International Nurses Day is celebrated globally on 12th May each year, which marks the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birthday!
