Honorer l’excellence des infirmières noires : des architectes du soin aux visionnaires du future En ce Mois de l’histoire des Noirs, nous célébrons l’excellence noire qui a façonné les soins de santé canadiens pendant plus de 400 ans. À l’AIIC, nous reconnaissons que les infirmières noires ont été les architectes de notre système, même lorsqu’elles étaient confrontées à des obstacles systémiques. Pensez à Bernice Redmon, qui en 1945 a été forcée de s’entraîner aux États-Unis parce que les écoles canadiennes interdisaient aux étudiants noirs. Elle est revenue pour devenir la première infirmière de santé publique noire du Canada, construisant une base d’équité malgré l’exclusion active. L’AIIC reconnaît explicitement les torts historiques causés par la marginalisation systémique des infirmières noires au sein de l’AIIC et de la profession en général. Depuis trop longtemps, vos contributions ont été négligées et sous-évaluées. Cet appel de résumés est une action délibérée. Nous allons au-delà des gestes symboliques pour veiller à ce que les voix et l’expertise des infirmières noires soient au cœur de l’avenir de la recherche et du leadership infirmiers. Nous demandons aux infirmières noires et aux infirmières praticiennes (infirmières autorisées, infirmières auxiliaires autorisées ou inscrites, infirmières psychiatriques autorisées), aux infirmières ayant suivi une formation interne (IFE) et aux étudiantes de soumettre des résumés pour la conférence nationale de l’AIIC à Winnipeg en 2026. Votre brillance—que ce soit dans la pratique clinique, le milieu universitaire, le leadership ou la défense des intérêts communautaires — est exactement ce que nous recherchons. Aidez-nous à transformer les systèmes de santé en soumettant votre travail dans les différents volets : •Le Pouvoir de la Pratique Éthique : Des Engagements à l’Action Mesurable •Le Pouvoir de l’innovation infirmière par la technologie •Le Pouvoir des connaissances et des pratiques spécialisées •Le Pouvoir des solutions infirmières//collaboratives pour le bien-être et la rétention •Le Pouvoir des infirmières et infirmiers pour bâtir un Canada en meilleure santé Soumettez votre résumé avant le 17 février 2026 (23h59 HE) : cna-aiic.ca/fr/nouvelles-e… cna-aiic.ca/fr/nouvelles-e… #CodeDeDeontologie #Ethique #EthiqueEnSoinsInfirmiers #ValeursInfirmieres #AppelAResumes #LeadershipInfirmier #CNA2026 #Winnipeg2026 #EquiteEnAction #Winnipeg

According to CIHI, in 2024, the supply of Nurse Practitioners (NPs) in Canada was 9,891— a 9.5% increase from 2023! Yukon (5.6), Newfoundland and Labrador (5.3), and Prince Edward Island (4.4) have the highest supply of nurse practitioners per 100,000 population, compared to the national average of 2.4. The demand for nurse practitioners continues to grow, as they deliver comprehensive care across the healthcare continuum and address emerging challenges within the system. @CIHI @NPAC We proudly recognize the vital role Nurse Practitioners play in strengthening Canada’s health-care system and celebrate our NP members during Nurse Practitioner Week, November 9–15. #NPWeek #NursePractitioners #CNA #HealthCare #NPsLead

“The #nursing shortage we have is a shortage of nurses willing to work in the current conditions. The only way to recruit and retain these essential health workers is to improve the workplace, and the conditions of care” - @picardonhealth theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl… @GlobeDebate

@dianne_martin Stay safe Dianne!

Doesn’t look like shorts weather but it is…with a raincoat. #Lawrencetown beach is near impossible to stand up beside and this weird foam situation is fascinating. We are sheltered enough to cosy but power looks a long way from returning. #HurricaneLee
