Celebrating National Nursing Week

This year from May 11 – 17th we celebrate National Nursing Week. The theme for this year is Nurses: With you every step of the way. Within Vancouver Coastal Health nurses are making immeasurable contributions to the health and wellbeing of our clients, resident and patients and the healthcare system as a whole. Every day, VCH Nurses are impacting clients across their span of life and experiences, in diverse practice settings. From providing remote prenatal care to in-home palliative care, vision screening for children to critical care for trauma patients, rehabilitation to harm reduction – VCH nurses are with clients through their life experiences and providing excellent professional care!

On behalf of Professional Practice and Vancouver Coastal Health, I wholeheartedly thank you for your dedication and commitment.
