One of the reasons that I wanted to join the forum committee was that currently in nursing and midwifery there are questions around professional identity, scope of practice, new and developing standards and the introduction of different roles. I truly understand the emotional labour that these influences have on members in addition to the retention and recruitment difficulties for many employers. Being a member of the committee affords me with exciting and varied opportunities to engage within practise and policy through collaboration with others to build authentic sustained interdisciplinary networks. I am proud of the national engagement and outputs that we are part of and produce through working together and sharing different perspectives.
