Happy Nurses’ Day to all our incredible nurses caring for patients with serious illness across every setting, in hospitals, hospices, homes, community services, and nursing homes.

Thank you for being present in the hardest moments, for noticing the smallest changes, for relieving suffering, supporting families, and protecting dignity when it matters most.

Palliative care is not defined by a place. It is carried wherever compassionate nurses go.

Today, we honour your skill, courage, tenderness, and the quiet love you bring to every patient and family. You are truly the heart of palliative care.

For the nurses who cared until the very end.

You sat with them.
You held space.
You carried what many never saw.

What you feel has a name.
And you are allowed to set it down.

Tend to yourself.
You matter too.

With gratitude for the work you do. 🤍

Yet due to its fluctuating course, up to 60% of delirium goes unrecognized! Let us be mindful and attentive of our older adults. Together, let’s do our part to prevent, detect and manage delirium 🧠🫶🏻

Communication doesn’t dissapear with dementia - it just changes. As carers, slowing down, making eye contact, listening with our hearts, and responding with patience can make persons with dementia feel seen, safe, and understood. Together, let us learn to make small changes in how we speak, listen and respond. Every moment of connection matters! 💜
