Nurses are leaders, innovators and creators. As we mark International Nurses’ Day, we’re celebrating the profession, and exploring the diversity of nursing roles today. Special guests and RCN award-winners, HMP Cardiff’s Kirsty John and founder and director of British Sikh Nurses Rohit Sagoo, join us to explore the theme of this year’s Nurses’ Day – ‘the Best of Nursing’.

Nursing Matters is presented by PNC chair Rachel Hollis and PNC member Professor Alison Leary. Tell us what YOU want us to discuss on the podcast by tweeting @theRCN with the tag #NursingMatters
