Torbay Hospital Celebrates International Nurses Day
This film has been produced by South Devon Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and the Torbay Hospital branch of the Royal College of Nursing, to celebrate Nurses Day.
It aims to show how nursing has changed during living memory and gives a flavour of the complexity and diversity of modern nursing while identifying some hopes for the future.
Through the personal experiences, memories and aspiration of nurses, past and present, this film shows how the basics of care remain as important to nurses today as they did decades ago. At the same time, is gives an insight into how nursing roles have evolved and developed with advances in knowledge and the introduction of new technologies. It also reveals how nursing continues to be a rewarding and satisfying career offering many positive challenges and the chance to make a real difference to people's lives.
We hope you find this film interesting and that it gives you an insight into the role of nursing.
Thank you for watching.
