'A healthful form of work'

An exhibition of the history of public health nursing will be held in the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Scotland headquarters, Edinburgh, from 2 May-22 September. Public health nursing has its origins in the 1800s with the rise of social reform and efforts to improve the health of the poorest in society. By recognising the role of nurses, the RCN aims to ‘inspire a future in which public health is everyone’s business’.
