Each year, we celebrate International Nurses Day on 12 May, which is also Florence Nightingale’s birthday. This year’s theme, Our nurses. Our future. Empowered nurses save lives, highlights the vital role nurses play in delivering safe, high quality care and the importance of investing in and celebrating the profession.
