One2Call Honour the UK’s Nurses this International Nurses Day

12th May 2023

One2Call work with Care Home and Critical Care services throughout the UK, join them this International Nurses Day in celebrating our nations nurses.

May 12th is International Nurses Day and we have a huge amount to thank the nation's nurses for. From the A&E front line, to the Vaccine Centre, Cancer & Critical Care, to Care Homes, our nations nurses have displayed bravery, skill, compassion, and unwavering dedication to help the nation.

For this year's #NurseDay, One2Call would like to highlight the often unsung role that our elderly care nurses play in giving the older generation the best possible quality of life in their later years. 

During the pandemic, elderly care was characterised by long shifts and extraordinary challenges. Nurses like Alison Mulligan, an infection control nurse, acted fast and stayed ahead of the virus, ensuring no infections were recorded in her care home. On the other hand, Linda Graham, another dedicated nurse, remained positive about the future, adapting to new technology and behaviours to offer better care.

One2Call's IT Support, Cyber Security, and CCTV & Building Access Solutions (which include Thermographic Temperature Screening) have been instrumental in helping care homes navigate unprecedented times, protecting sensitive patient information, and maintaining a secure environment for staff and residents alike.

Maria Mallaband Care Group (MMCG), one of the UK's leading independent care home providers, is an excellent example of a Care Home group that invests in staff development and retention, whilst also investing in the latest technology to assist them in the daily operation and ensure the security (Physical & Cyber Security) of their residents and staff.

Many of their care practitioners have remained with the Group for over five years, and their Nursing Trainee Associate University Programme is Ofsted rated as 'outstanding'. One2Call is proud to provide support services to MMCG, helping them cultivate the next generation of nurses. With advanced IT infrastructure and security measures, One2Call is committed to ensuring that care homes like MMCG can continue to deliver exceptional care and support for their residents.

As we celebrate International Nurses Day, let us join One2Call in raising a glass to all our nurses, while giving a special tip of the cap to our dedicated, hard-working elderly care nurses who care for our family members in later life when we may be unable to ourselves. By providing essential services that allow care homes to operate safely and efficiently, One2Call is contributing to a brighter, healthier future for all.
