This year’s theme, "Caring for nurses strengthens health systems," hits hard as demand for healthcare skyrockets worldwide. China’s growth—now boasting 5.2 million registered nurses—could inspire similar trends globally. 🚀 With aging populations and tech-driven care, this workforce surge is a lifeline for future health infrastructure.
