South Pacific Nurses forum

 It's been 34 years since Papua New Guinea hosted the South Pacific Nurses forum.



The country took the honour this year hosting the 21 Nurses Forum.

Members from Pacific Island countries and Australia and New Zealand attended.

In Australia, the Aboringal and Torres Strait Islanders health and nurses program representatives also attended.


The theme was "our nurses our future ".

Private organisations like Santos who has a massive health program for its staff also attended.

A highlight for the three days summit was the launch of a nursing program by Papua New Guinea's National Department of Health.



At the conclusion and a farewell gala dinner, gifts were exchanged and friendship forged in a true Pacific ways.

A nurse originally from Niue but now based in New Zealand opened the dinner with a prayer.
