Film night celebrates International Nurses Day
5 MAY 2015
International Nurses Day will be celebrated with a double-bill film night at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst on Tuesday 19 May. Associate Professor David Stanley, the Head of the CSU School of Nursing, Midwifery and Indigenous Health, said, International Nurses Day (12 May) is an important reminder of the valuable work nurses do around the world. "We invite members of the community to join our students and staff for the screening of two engaging films about nursing as a career. The first film is The Lamp Still Burns, a classic black and white film from 1943, the story of how nursing and nursing education use to be. During intermission we'll draw the lucky door prize. The second film is Wit (2001), staring Emma Thompson, a wonderful film about nursing care and illness from the patient's perspective." The films will be screened at 7pm Tuesday 19 May in lecture room 205, building 1292, at CSU in Bathurst. Entry is a $5 donation, and food and drinks provided by the CSU Bathurst Nurses Club can be purchased. Money raised will go to Daffodil Cottage (cancer treatment support) in Bathurst.
