Nurse leaders

As a chief nurse, director or assistant director of nursing your needs and expectations are different to those of the majority of the nurse population. You have told us what you want from the RCN to assist you with your career and we have listened.

At the RCN we recognise the contribution you make to ensuring the delivery of quality care for your patients and clients through your ward to board expertise. We also recognise the value of your influence in making a difference to health care at all levels and in all settings.

We are committed to providing you with the support, development resources and opportunities to enable you to be successful in your role. You can find the information on how we can help you within this website.

Working together we can ensure your voice is heard, and the unique challenges you face in your role are addressed. If you are not currently a member, find our how you can join and the benefits of membership to ensure your voice is heard.

If you are a nurse leader and want to be kept informed about the activities relevant to you, make sure the contact details we have for you are up to date. To ensure you are sent only the most relevant information, please remember to give us your job title, area of practice/interest and grade. You can do all of this through myRCN, or by calling RCN Direct on 0345 772 6100. You can also join the Management and Leadership Forum by contacting RCN Direct.
