International Nurses Day 2026

HHT-NursesDay

Today, May 12th, we celebrate International Nurses Day — a day dedicated to recognising the compassion, dedication, and tireless work of nurses around the world.

The date marks the anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale, widely regarded as the founder of modern nursing.

At HHT Ireland, we are especially grateful to the nurses who continue to support patients and families with kindness, care, and professionalism every single day.

Nurses play an essential role in healthcare, often providing comfort and reassurance during the most difficult moments. Their commitment never goes unnoticed, and today is an opportunity to remind them how valued and appreciated they truly are.

We encourage everyone to take a moment to thank a nurse who has made a difference in your life or in the life of your family.

To all nurses everywhere — thank you for everything you do.
