International Nurses’ Day

International Nurses’ Day takes place on 12 May and focuses on what it means to be a nurse and how our nurses have led patient care, particularly through the past few challenging years.

We want to say huge thank you to all our nurses across the organisation. They have continued to provide outstanding care to our patients, through very difficult circumstances and we are extremely grateful to them. We could not have done it without them.

Below you will find stories about our fantastic nurses and some comments from our staff who work with nurses and what it means to them.

If you’ve felt inspired and are interested in joining the Nottinghamshire Healthcare family, you can find everything you need to know at https://recruitment.nottshc.nhs.uk/

 

Nursing associate shares her journey of achieving her dream job of becoming a nurse

Our very first nursing associate has shown her dedication and commitment and now has her first job as a registered nurse.

Nursing associates were a new role in the Trust which began in 2017. They work with healthcare support workers and registered nurses to deliver care for patients and the public. It is also a stepping stone to becoming a registered nurse.

Leah Quick shared her amazing journey of the challenges she overcame to pursue her dream of becoming a nurse.

Of her recent appointment as a registered nurse, she said:

 “So here I am, I have a staff nurse job in a palliative care unit, I love it. I feel proud every day I put on my uniform. I must remind myself that I worked hard to get here and want to encourage anyone else who has that desire to go for it!”
