Nurses are in the frontline of the health care system and can play an important role in promoting health and providing relevant and personalised care to patients, according to their specific needs. By doing so, nurses contribute in decreasing health inequalities and contribute to social justice. However, they might not be aware of this opportunity. It is time to talk about social justice in the nursing curriculum!

Equité dans les soins : les professionnels de la santé jouent un rôle important

Leave a comment

Depuis quelques années, plusieurs hôpitaux suisses ont rejoint “Swiss Hospitals 4 Equity”. Cette plateforme permet de rassembler l’expertise des équipes des professionnels s’engageant pour offrir des soins de qualité à toutes et à tous. Une conférence annuelle et la mise à jour régulière du site permettent de partager les connaissances scientifiques actuelles en lien, entre autre, avec l’enseignement des compétences transculturelles auprès des professionnels de la santé.

Here I am, after a long break from my blog.

During one year I lived and worked in Kyrgyzstan, an amazing country in central Asia.

I was working with MSF as project coordinator in Kara Suu District. MSF is supporting the local Ministry of Health and communities to provide access to diagnosis and treatment for Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (DRTB).

Back home, Back to blogging, so keep posted!
