This Pandemic is like nothing any of us have experienced in our working lives. Covid 19 is a test of our resilience and our humanity. The optics have changed but the essence of Advanced Nurse / Midwifery Practice has not altered. We remain front and center as we adapt and respond to facilitate patient access to front line care. The health care issues we have been advocating for many years have now become top priority. We will continue to make bold moves as together we step up to the plate and fight this pandemic for the Irish people.
