In honor of International Nurses Day, the United Kingdom salutes its healthcare heroes. These nurses have been on the frontline of the fight against COVID-19, providing essential care and comfort to those affected. From providing basic care to the most complex of treatments, nurses remain the backbone of the NHS.
To recognize their incredible work and dedication, the UK has organized various activities and events across the country to celebrate International Nurses Day. This includes local appreciation ceremonies, special talks and events, and even free meals for nurses.
The UK is also hosting a virtual event with the Chief Nursing Officer for England, Ruth May, and other notable nurses, to recognize their tireless efforts. This event will be broadcasted on social media and will feature messages of appreciation from members of the public.
The UK government is also providing a range of support to nurses, including a one-off tax-free payment of up to £500 for those working in the NHS.
The UK salutes its healthcare heroes and expresses its immense gratitude to all nurses for their selfless service.
