WHAT WE DO

Elevate Nurses Voices

Nurses in the Media provides tailored media competency training programs designed specifically for nurses and their specialties.

As the largest occupational group in healthcare consistently ranked as the most trusted profession, nurses' voices are essential in informing and educating the public. Despite this, nurses often find themselves absent from health news stories, undermining their significance in healthcare in the public eye.

We aim not only to change the narrative, but to be a part of it.
