Friday 12 May 2023 marks International Nurses Day - a day of celebration observed worldwide to honour the vital contribution of nurses in delivering care to patients and communities.
UHDB is delighted to say thank you to all of our fantastic nurses at UHDB on this special day - as well as nurses working across our NHS, and all over the world - for their invaluable role in providing care and treatment to those who need it.
To celebrate, we've spoken to three UHDB nurses about their roles here, focusing on 'Why I Became a Nurse' - and UHDB's Chaplain, Alison Thorp, has offered a prayer to her nursing colleagues.
As well as this, teams across all of our hospital sites are marking the occasion with staff displays, events, decorations, and information for colleagues, patients and visitors alike. We are delighted to see so many teams take part.
