We would like to wish our nurses, and every nurse, a very happy International Nurses Day. The work our nursing team completes is vital to our patients, the practice as a whole and is a foundation of the quality care we aim to provide. Recognition of their roll in primary care can never go understated and we appreciate all members of our nursing team immensely. Thank you for all your hard work.

INTERNATIONAL NURSES DAY 12TH MAY 2026

Today is International Nurses Day.

Nursing is a global profession. Across the world, nursing is highly skilled and safety-critical, requiring exceptional dedication, professionalism and expertise.

At a time of increasing geopolitical instability, shrinking development funding, and political pressure on health systems worldwide, the nursing community globally faces shared challenges that transcend borders.

Global nursing solidarity is increasingly important.

Nursing staff worldwide face many similar issues; staff shortages and compromised patient care, as well as a lack of value for the role of nursing staff.

We thank our practice nurses for the care and dedication they continually give to our patients everyday.

In the UK, Bowel Cancer accounts for 12% of new cancer, made up of over 48,000 cases (2019, 2021-2022). Sadly in 2022-2024, there were 17,700 deaths from Bowel Cancer in the UK, but 54% of cases are preventable. Early detection is one of the most important aspects to help combat cancer.
