International Nurses’ Day is celebrated around the world each year on 12 May, the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth. It provides an opportunity to mark the contribution of nursing staff and reflect on their vital work.
This year is the International Year of the Nurse and Midwife (the 200th anniversary of Nightingale’s birth), but it has also been a year when we are thankful to all nurses across the world for their tireless efforts in responding to the coronavirus pandemic.
Our specialty resource list to support nursing practice and professional development has been recently updated. As well as a wide range of books and journals, we provide access to specialist nursing databases such as BNI, CINAHL and EMCARE, and online resources such as the Royal Marsden Manual and ClinicalSkills.net.
