Promote The Image Of Nursing - Joyce Lamptey

The Deputy Western Regional Director of Nursing Services, Joyce Lamptey has urged nurse managers and educators to help promote the image of the nursing and midwifery profession by training student nurses to be agents of change and role models. She said their calling to the profession places a huge responsibility on them to provide quality healthcare to the people which was the philosophy of Florence Nightingale, the founder of the profession. Madam Lamptey was addressing the joint matriculation of the fifth batch of students of health assistant clinical and first batch of the post community health nurse and midwifery programmes at the midwifery and health assistants training school at Asankragwa in the Western Region.
