    National Day of Nursing Care

     Sounding of the gong marks National Day of Nursing Care

    On the birthday of Florence Nightingale, founder of the nursing profession, nurses and carers celebrate National Day of Nursing Care.

    This year, the Florence Nightingale Institute, Centre for the History of Nursing and the V&VN (the Professional Society for Nurses and Carers in the Netherlands) present a new flag for National Day of Nursing Care. Last year, a competition was held for a contemporary design. Through this new flag, the two organisations wish to emphasise the importance of National Day of Nursing Care for the next fifty years. The jury unanimously chose the entry by Bas Kinsbergen, whose design represents nursing as the light between humanity and technology.

    Eline de Kok, who is a nurse and a nursing scientist working at the UMC Utrecht and at the V&VN, will sound the gong to call attention to the strength of nurses and carers in society.

    À semelhança do que tem acontecido nos últimos anos, a Euronext Lisbon junta-se às restantes localizações europeias do Grupo para comemorar o ‘World Wish Day’, através do toque do sino de encerramento da sessão de bolsa. A cerimónia de toque do sino conta com a presença da directora executiva da Fundação Realizar um Desejo, Mariana Carreira, e uma criança que já viu o seu desejo ser realizado. O primeiro desejo realizado pela Make-A-Wish ocorreu, nos EUA, quando um rapaz com leucemia, Chris Greicius, realizou o seu sonho: ser polícia por um dia. A Fundação Realizar um Desejo, filial da Make-a-Wish em Portugal, acredita que a concretização de um sonho a uma criança que luta corajosamente contra uma doença grave, lhe transmite uma mensagem positiva de esperança, de força e de alegria quando ela mais precisa.
