Chief nurse calls for gender equality on NHS boards

Chief nurse calls for gender equality on NHS boards The Chief Nursing Officer for England, Professor Jane Cummings, says she wants to see a balance of genders on NHS boards with more nurses and midwives in senior positions within the next five years.

“I am determined to ensure our professions have a seat at the table as we tackle the challenges ahead. The nursing and midwifery professions have a vital role to help shape an NHS and care system for the future and their voices must be heard," Professor Cummings said in a speech at the Health and Care Innovation Expo 2016 conference in Manchester yesterday.
