The nation’s nurses are being urged to ready themselves for a pivotal role in Guyana’s evolving health sector transformation.
According to a release from the Department of Public Information (DPI) on Tuesday, this was the exhortation of Minister of Health, Dr Frank Anthony, in his address at the Nurses and Midwives Council of Guyana’s awards ceremony at Cara Lodge in Georgetown, for nurses who have been serving for over 30 years.
He spoke of the forthcoming changes in medical practice and stressed the importance of continuous learning. “The way that we are practicing medicine is going to change drastically in Guyana, it has already been changing over the years…very soon, if we are not there in some aspects as yet, a lot of what we will be doing, people from the surrounding areas, countries will be looking to Guyana as an example.”
