The Queen’s Nursing Institute is the charity dedicated to improving patient care by supporting community nurses
We do this by:
- Investing in community nurse-led projects and providing support to community nurses in need
- Involving community nurses in shaping the policies that affect them
- Inspiring community nurses to reach their full potential for the benefit of the community
Our remit includes all nurses and midwives who work in the community in any field or specialty, in the NHS, voluntary or private sector, in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
