Our International Nurses’ Day celebration took place on Friday 9 May and was led Jenny Hurst, Chief Nurse. Jenny reflected on her career path as well as Trust achievements and supported this year’s theme with a reminder of our comprehensive wellbeing offer and the importance of self-care.
Our Chief Executive, Trish Bennett also thanked our nurses and allied health professionals for the passion and commitment to nursing and was followed by James McLean, NHSE Regional Chief Nurse who talked about nursing past present and future.
As the theme was the importance of health and wellbeing, the event included interactive sessions on mindfulness, mentalising, stress management, Beat the Burnout and our charity as well as opportunities to pedal a bike and make fresh fruit smoothies and singing with the NHS Choir.
Thank you to the staff who supported the event with presentations.
Happy Nurses’ Day!
