Greetings to the nursing fraternity in Barbados !
Today, the President and Executive Committee of the Barbados Nurses’ Association greet all nurses in Barbados on our special day celebrating International Nurses Day. The theme for this year is
“Nurses A Voice To Lead: A Vision for Future Health Care”. International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world every May 12th, the birthday of Florence Nightengale.
Nurses have spent the last year working under extremely trying conditions but have shown continued commitment and dedication to our jobs.
The future of healthcare and ultimately patient’s access to care, will be tied to innovations in the field of nursing making this extremely relevant and timely for 2021.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has put the global spotlight on midwives and nurses, and the critical role we play. The pandemic has affected all areas of perinatal care, which has caused midwives to face enormous challenges,” Francis-Miller stated.

Being in the leadership roles of Nursing Officer and an Executive Member of the Professional Nurses Association, I reflect on my earlier years and some foundation lessons that stayed with me, such as to work hard for everything I want and to challenge and push boundaries because nothing is handed to you.
As I grew older, I accepted that it is okay to be different from the crowd, but you must be strong enough to carry your own weight and the weight of the world, if you are going to challenge the system. It is a lesson that came with many tears and pain but very effective in developing the woman that I am today.
