On Monday 12 May, we celebrated International Nurses Day, a special time we take to honor and appreciate our nurses who work tirelessly to deliver outstanding patient care across our community.

We’re especially thrilled to celebrate our outstanding recipients of the 2025 Sue O’Keeffe Nursing Award, the Linda Goodwin Recognition Nursing Award and Nursing and Midwifery Excellence Awards at Frankston Hospital, Golf Links Road and The Mornington Centre. These health professionals continually strive for excellence, going above and beyond to provide world-class care and enhance health outcomes for their patients.

Congratulations to all the recipients and a heartfelt thank you to all our incredible nurses for their unwavering commitment and ongoing contributions to our health service. International Nurses Day offers us a moment to express our deep gratitude for their tireless efforts in nurturing patients and championing wellbeing.
