Our Nurses. Our Future. Empowered Nurses Save Lives.
⬆️ This years theme for considers our role in lifting up nurses to confidently perform their best.
Once a nurse herself, Mel from our Australian team, considers how confidence shapes the ability to keep patients safe:
“There is one constant in the nursing profession – critical thinking. It is a complex skill, developed with confidence and hands-on learning, to ensure the safety of all patients.
During my time mentoring student nurses, I found the most important key to empowerment was building a safe & supportive environment in which they could ask questions and learn without fear of judgement. Simulation is an important part of this mentorship; guiding students through their learning in a safe space to develop competent, confident practitioners.”
Thank you to all nurses across the globe for their remarkable serviceđź’™
