The Year of the Nurse and Midwife: an effort worth joining?
Keywords:
EditorialAbstract
The World Health Organization has designated the year 2020 as The Year of the Nurse and Midwife in tribute to Florence Nightingale who was born 200 years ago. The decision to dedicate a whole year to nursing and midwifery has not been made only to remember and celebrate the founder of modern nursing. It was made to recognize the importance of these caring professions for global health and the health care systems and for society as a whole.
