Nightingale Badge - New

Categories: Medicine

The badge was introduced as a successor to the former Nightingale Badge. It is awarded to nurses who are deemed outstanding and who meet the definition of a ‘next generation Nightingale’, which is an individual who is a dedicated pioneer, innovative with an enquiring mind, who inspires others and goes beyond the call of duty.
