We would like to extend our warmest invitation to you to participate in the Global Nursing Conference. The theme of the conference is Nursing Practice, Nursing Education, Nursing Management, and Disaster Management.

Nurses play a pivotal role in the promotion, maintenance and restoration of health. There is a global trend of shifting the focus of healthcare services from traditional hospital setting to community and home care. The role of nurses in the delivery of primary, secondary and tertiary care is evolving as the mode of delivery of healthcare services undergoes major transformation. Nursing is increasingly concerned with system-wide innovative approaches to advance the provision and quality of care in community and home settings.

The conference will provide a valuable opportunity for nurses from different cultural backgrounds and diverse fields to changing role of nurses in community and home acre from international perspective, to promote the generation and implementation of evidence based practice in community and home nursing. Through sharing and exchange of information on the latest developments in the disciplines among experts from across the globe, the Conference will contribute to formulating global and regional strategies in advancing nurses’ role as well as developing policy initiatives in as it relates to nursing practice, nursing education, nursing management and disaster management.
