Making the
invisible visible.
A nurse can explain a procedure in a minute. Explaining why someone finally felt safe enough to speak may take considerably longer. The first is easily counted. The second can change a life. Art of Nursing CIC exists in the space between these two truths: an independent, mission-led social enterprise connecting art, nursing, public health and education.
Art of Nursing CIC is a social enterprise organisation bringing together arts, nursing, public health and education. Through evaluation of creative health and nursing programmes, exhibitions and films and learning for nurses and health leaders, Art of Nursing CIC makes the human contribution to care visible and turns evidence into action.
The work helps people understand what makes care effective, what sustains those who provide care and what needs to change.
