May is Nurses' Month

National Nurses Month

Honouring Florence Nightingale's legacy on the anniversary of her birthday, May 12

KNAA celebrates every nurse who shows up with skill, compassion, and resilience. May 12, Florence Nightingale's birthday, marks International Nurses Day, a moment to recognise the profession's roots and its continued evolution.

Nurses change lives. Every single day.
May is for Maternal Health

Maternal & Infant Health Awareness

Advocating for mothers and newborns

Black mothers face disproportionate risks in maternal health outcomes. KNAA stands at the forefront of patient advocacy, early intervention, and community education to protect mothers and infants before, during, and after birth.

Every mother deserves safe, equitable care.
May is for Mental Health

Mental Health Awareness Month

Normalising care for the caregiver

Healthcare workers carry enormous emotional weight. KNAA promotes mental wellness for both patients and practitioners by addressing depression, anxiety, burnout, and stress management as core pillars of a healthy nursing profession.

Caring for others starts with caring for yourself.
