Glasgow marks International Nurses Day 2023

On 12 May we celebrated International Nurses Day. Nurses across the world were recognised for their commitment, compassion and daily contributions to society.

International Nurses Day was first established in 1974 by the International Council of Nurses and serves to highlight the important role nurses fulfil in health and social care.

This year the theme was ‘Our Nurses. Our Future’. The theme aims to set out the vision and importance of nursing in the future that will address global health challenges and improve global health for all. 

Being There For Someone At Risk Of Suicide - A Guide To Taking Care of Yourself and Others

A potential life-saving resource has been developed for people looking after someone with suicidal thoughts.

Last year, our Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership’s (HSCP) Suicide Prevention Partnership commissioned Glasgow Association for Mental Health (GAMH) to develop material for people who are supporting someone considering suicide.

GAMH worked with individuals who have lived experience of supporting a loved one at risk of suicide to develop the ‘Being There For Someone At Risk Of Suicide – a guide to taking care of yourself and others’.

Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) has long recognised the impact of social isolation on our well-being and launched a Socially Connected Strategy in June 2022. The strategy heard from people across the city on how vital social connections are, and essential in supporting someone to live well in their local community for as long as possible – a key factor of the Maximising Independence approach.
