Nursing and Healthcare
Nurses are the largest professional group in the global health workforce. They are central to patient care in hospitals, communities, clinics and homes. Healthcare systems face ageing populations, a rise in chronic disease, workforce shortages and fast technological change. That makes nursing research and practice more important than ever.
The Nursing and Healthcare session at Nursing Science 2027, held from 17 to 19 May 2027 in London, UK, is a global platform for nurses, educators, researchers and healthcare leaders. They share evidence-based nursing practices, new care models and solutions to the challenges facing modern healthcare. The session links clinical practice, academic research and health policy, with a focus on better patient outcomes and stronger healthcare systems worldwide.

Recent Advances in Nursing and Healthcare Research
Healthcare delivery is changing quickly, and nurses are leading much of that change. Digital health tools are changing how nurses monitor and support patients beyond hospital walls. Examples include remote patient monitoring, wearable sensors and virtual nursing models. Advances in AI and emerging technologies in nursing are helping nurses spot patient deterioration earlier, improve triage and reduce documentation burden.
High-fidelity simulation and virtual reality training are changing nursing education and research, helping students become more confident and better prepared for clinical practice. Outside the hospital, community and public health nursing is growing in importance, with nurses leading preventive care, chronic disease management and health education in underserved populations.
There is also growing research on nurse wellbeing and burnout prevention, person-centred care, and health equity. These areas recognise that the quality of care depends on both a supported workforce and fair access for all communities.
