2020: The Year of the Nurse

The World Health Assembly, the governing body of the World Health Organization (WHO), designated 2020 as the Year of the Nurse and Midwife to advance nurses’ vital position in transforming healthcare around the world. It also is in honor of the 200th anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth.

In the US, nurses engage in a wide range of roles and specialties, which is why ANA Enterprise chose to promote 2020 as the “Year of the Nurse.” Our goal is to encourage inclusivity and participation of all nurses, including nurse midwives, in this landmark year of activities.
