It is with resounding thanks and commendation that I extend New Year’s greetings to the Nursing Fraternity of Trinidad and Tobago. While some could entertain nostalgia, others were too busy to even hum “Auld Lang Syne”, as 2019 was ushered into our workplaces and homes nurses were providing care around the clock. Ours is a noble profession which demands a lot of sacrifice, and with the changing world economic climate, greater demands are being placed on our nation’s healthcare system.
