Professor Greta Westwood CBE PhD RN, CEO of the
Florence Nightingale Foundation, said: We welcome
this recognition of the importance of the nursing role. Nurses
are skilled and highly trained professionals, playing a key leadership role in the health and social care sectors, particularly
around speaking out on patient safety and workforce
challenges.
This International Nurses Day, we are coming together to
celebrate the incredible work that nurses do across the UK and
globally, and we support the government taking this next step,
working with the UK regulator, to protect our nurses and those
we serve.
