It’s World Health Day today

Today is World Health Day. Over the past 50 years this celebration has brought to light important health issues such as mental health, maternal and child care, and climate change. This year the theme is centred on the vital role played by nurses and midwives in providing health care around the world.

Tuesday 7 April 2020 is the day to celebrate the work of nurses and midwives and a reminder to all of us of the critical role they play in keeping the world healthy. Nurses and other health workers are at the forefront of COVID-19 response - providing high quality, respectful treatment and care, leading community dialogue to address fears and questions.

We are extremely grateful to all those who put themselves on the front line on a daily basis, without them we would be in predicament. Therefore, first and foremost, to all key workers across the globe, we want to say a heartfelt Thank you, we appreciate your time, dedication and service – Thank You.

There is no denying this pandemic has greatly altered our lives, we have all had to adapt to different ways of collaborating, working and interacting with colleagues, customers, friends & family. We recognise change is not always easy, yet most of us have altered our approach for the greater good and to continue living a somewhat ‘normal life’.

Over the next few days we will post blogs from a few colleagues who have adapted to different ways of working to ensure our customers are still receiving a great service during these difficult times
