International Year of the Nurse Campaign
ANA Urges Involvement in International Year of the Nurse Campaign
The American Nurses Association (ANA), as part of its commitment to advancing the nursing profession, encourages nurses and health care professionals around the world to take part in a campaign urging the United Nations to adopt resolutions declaring 2010 International Year of the Nurse , and 2011-2020 a UN Decade for a Healthy World . Nurses can sign an on-line pledge resolving to work together in improving health care for all communities.
ANA is proud to be one of the sponsors of the Nightingale Declaration Campaign . ANA joins with a coalition of nursing, educational and health care organizations in building support for this international effort. Our goal is to demonstrate the nursing community's commitment to improving health care locally, nationally and internationally through nursing practices that reflect the principles of Florence Nightingale.
