Nurse and CEO International Council of Nurses
This week, ICN launched the #Nursing Leadership for Crisis Response and Recovery (NLCRR) in Kyiv. 24 Ukrainian #nurse leaders joined the in-person session of this programme, strengthening crisis leadership and resilience amid conflict. Made possible through the #NursesforPeace campaign.

A summary of ICNs interventions at the 7th Global Ministerial Summit on #PatientSafety: “Evidence shows staff and patient safety are 2 sides of the same coin. We are telling #healthministers we need specific policy action, just cultures, safe staffing policies & legal protection for #nurses.”
