We had an insightful conversation with Nurse Ayilara Abiola, a health informatics expert and the founder of Myqura.

From leveraging technology to bridge healthcare gaps to elevating standards for patients outside traditional hospital walls, this is a conversation you don't want to miss. #HomeCareNursing #HealthInformatics #NursingNigeria #Myqura #HealthcareInnovation #FellowNursesAfrica #DigitalHealth #PatientCare

Healthcare as a fundamental human right rather than a privilege or luxury is built on the principle that the highest attainable standard of health is essential to living a life with dignity. When health is treated as a commercial commodity or luxury, systemic inequalities widen, disproportionately harming vulnerable and low-income populations who cannot afford out-of-pocket medical expenses.  How can we drive better accountability in our sector? Let's discuss below." #HealthcareInNigeria #PublicHealth #FellowNursesAfrica #NigerianNurses

🩺 THE APGAR SCORE: A QUICK GUIDE FOR EVERY NURSE! 👶 The first few minutes after birth are crucial in assessing a newborn's health and immediate needs. The APGAR score is a quick assessment performed to evaluate a newborn's condition immediately after birth. Remember the five components: 🔹 A – Appearance (Skin colour) 🔹 P – Pulse (Heart rate) 🔹 G – Grimace (Reflex irritability) 🔹 A – Activity (Muscle tone) 🔹 R – Respiration (Breathing effort) Each component is scored from 0–2, giving a maximum total score of 10. Test your knowledge: What is the usual timing for APGAR scoring after birth? Drop your answer in the comments!

Your nursing journey doesn't have to look like anyone else's. Grow at your own pace, but never stop growing.

IF YOU ARE NOT GIVEN A SEAT AT THE TABLE, BRING YOUR OWN CHAIR. For years, nurses have complained about being excluded from healthcare policy discussions, leadership decisions, strategic planning and other important conversations that shape the future of healthcare. And rightly so. Nurses deserve a seat at those tables. We are among the professionals who understand the realities of healthcare delivery, the needs of patients and the challenges within the health system. But perhaps it is time we also asked ourselves a different question: Are we becoming so relevant, knowledgeable, competent and instrumental that our contributions cannot be ignored, whether or not we are invited to the table? We cannot continue to wait for opportunities while neglecting the preparation required to maximise them. We must develop ourselves. We must read, research, innovate, attend conferences, pursue further education, understand healthcare policies, build professional networks, develop leadership skills and become confident contributors to healthcare conversations. We must learn to communicate our ideas, defend our positions with evidence and translate our clinical experiences into practical solutions. We must understand that nursing influence extends beyond the bedside. It reaches boardrooms, government institutions, research centres, healthcare businesses, technology, education, policy development and international platforms. When an opportunity comes, we should not be struggling to find something meaningful to contribute. We should be prepared to make an impact. And when we are not invited, let our work, expertise, innovations and contributions speak so loudly that our absence becomes noticeable. The goal is not simply to be invited to the table. The goal is to become a nurse whose presence adds undeniable value to the conversation. So, fellow nurses, let us stop waiting for recognition and start building capacity. Let us become nurses who bring solutions, not just complaints; ideas, not just opinions; evidence, not just assumptions; and leadership, not just expectations. If they give you a seat, occupy it with confidence. If they don't, bring your own chair. But wherever you find yourself, make sure you have something valuable to contribute. We must become nurses who cannot be ignored.

🚨 “WE HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR QUACKERY IN LAGOS!” — Dr. Olawale Oladapo The message is loud, clear and uncompromising! 🔥 As concerns continue to grow over fake nurses, unlicensed practitioners and illegal nursing training institutions, Lagos State is sending a strong message: Quackery has no place in nursing! Speaking in an exclusive interview with Fellow Nurses Africa, Dr. Olawale Oladapo, Secretary of the Lagos State Nursing and Midwifery Committee, reaffirmed the state's zero-tolerance position on quackery.
