We send our support to Alex Pretti's family and loved ones, and the global nursing community which has lost a devoted member. No matter where they are in the world, they - and the people they serve - deserve to be safe, both at work and in their communities.

Quote from Professor Nicola Ranger, RCN General Secretary & Chief Executive, that says: "Nursing is a global family, and Alex Pretti’s death in such violent circumstances will be felt deeply. Those who join our profession do so because they are compassionate, and driven by an unrivalled commitment to public service."

On behalf of RCN Council, we send our thoughts and prayers to all lose affected by Storm Melissa. Nursing staff will be directly impacted by this disaster and we know they will be doing all they can to provide care to others. We stand with our nursing colleagues across the Caribbean 💙 @rcn.org.uk
