International Nurses Day – A Thank You to our Gladstone Nurses 

International Nurses Day is hosted on the 12^th of May, is a special time to recognise and celebrate the incredible nurses who care for the Gladstone community every single day. In Gladstone, this day carries extra meaning because local nurses are at the heart of our hospital, aged care facilities, clinics, schools, and Gladstone community health services. They are often the first smiling face patients see when they are unwell and the steady, reassuring presence that helps people feel safe during some of life’s most difficult moments. 

Nurses in Gladstone play a huge role in keeping our region healthy and supported. They don’t just treat illness, they care for people as whole individuals, offering comfort, understanding, and dignity. In a close-knit regional community like Gladstone, this personal connection makes a real difference.
