In these challenging times, skilled nursing staff are saving and changing patients’ lives every single day.
You are leaders, specialists and innovators in creating the highest standards of nursing practice with care and compassion and you’re always putting your patients first.
This year, Nurses’ Day coincides with the first day of RCN Congress – the biggest event in the nursing calendar. We’re excited to spend the day with everyone who’ll be in attendance in Liverpool, but there are other ways to get involved wherever you are.
Whether you’re joining us at Congress or marking the day with your colleagues, friends and family, and download posters from our website – check how else you can get involved.
We’re encouraging you to share your stories and show your appreciation to your colleagues using #NursesDay in your own social media posts on the day – make sure to tag us so we can reshare your posts.
Our unique film highlighting what modern nursing means today will also be revealed on Monday 12 May, so keep an eye out for that so you can watch and share.
