There are two newsletters: one for social care nurse practitioners and the other for partners in the healthcare system

We Are Social Care Nursing newsletter shares and celebrates the exceptional work being done by nurses and nursing associates working in social care. The aim is to highlight and showcase what is going on in nursing, to give a voice to the nurses and nursing associates who are working in social care, and for colleagues to better understand the complexity of the roles.

The Nursing News newsletter aims to provide insight into some of the nursing related activities that Skills for Care is both involved in and aware of, across the country. With 33,000 registered nurses working in social care and a further 6,700 in other roles, and nursing associates, we aim to highlight national and local priorities that have an impact on nursing within social care. We want to focus on, support, and promote, the role of nursing within the social care sector.
