International Nurses Day 2009 Poster

International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world every 12th May. This day is celebrated to remember all of the valuable contributions nurses make to society.

The International Council of Nurses has celebrated this day since 1965. Each year, the International Council of Nurses prepares and distributes the International Nurses' Day Kit. The kit contains educational and public information materials, for use by nurses everywhere. The theme for 2009 is “DELIVERING QUALITY, SERVING COMMUNITIES: NURSES LEADING CARE INNOVATIONS”. The kit is available on the ICN website www.icn.ch.

 The SASOHN Executive would like to wish all South African nurses and in particular all Occupational Health Nurses a great day! We appreciate every contribution you make to each South African’s life.
