Do we really need Community Children’s Nurses?
Date and time: 14th November 2024, 16.00-17.00
Presenter: Mark Whiting, PhD, MSc. BNursing, PGDip(ED), RGN, RSCN, DN, HV
Summary of webinar presentation: Mark Whiting will lead a webinar reflecting on the history of the development of Community Children’s Nursing in the UK. Mark will commence by exploring how and why during the late 19th Century, the introduction of dedicated community nursing provision for children followed close-on-the-heels of the establishment of the first children’s hospitals in the UK. This will be followed with a review of the disjointed development of CCN provision during the early years of the NHS and a celebration of the ‘golden years’ of CCN service expansion between 1985 and 2000. Mark will then offer some personal reflections on “Where we are now” and invite attendees to offer their own perspectives on the question “Do we really need Community Children’s Nurses?”
