THE HEART OF HEALTHCARE: CELEBRATING THE ROLE OF NURSES IN OUR LIVES
Athlone News
|May 07, 2025
Each year on May 12, the world pauses to honor the dedication, compassion, and expertise of nurses on International Nurses Day.
-
This date commemorates the birth of Florence Nightingale, the visionary founder of modern nursing, and serves as a reminder of the vital role nurses play in every corner of the health system.
This Year's Theme: Caring for Nurses Strengthens Economies
In 2025, the International Council of Nurses (ICN) has chosen the theme:
“Our Nurses. Our Future. Caring for nurses strengthens economies.” This message goes beyond recognition—it's a call to action. Nurses are not just caregivers; they are critical drivers of public health, community resilience, and economic stability. Investing in their wellbeing, safety, and professional development is not a cost—it’s a smart, necessary investment in our collective future.
