International Year of the Nurse and the Midwife

Nursing the world to health #IND2020

Nurses are on the front lines as the world faces the COVID-19 pandemic. During these unprecedented times nurses continue to play a critical role in global health and we honor their service and commitment. 

In recognition of the 200th anniversary of Florence Nightingale's birth, the World Health Organization has designated 2020 the International Year of the Nurse and the Midwife. Springer Nature continues to support the advancement of nursing and midwifery research. We are proud to share curated research and timely blog content for your viewing.
