Dame Ruth May has worked for the NHS for almost 40 years.
She described her career in the health service, which has spanned almost four decades, as a “privilege”.
“Although recent years have been the most challenging for the NHS, nurses, midwives, nursing associates and health and care support staff have together achieved so much.Dame Ruth started as a nurse in training in 1985 and took up the post of England’s chief nursing officer in January 2019. “This was never more important, and more visible, than during the pandemic, when Ruth led the nursing and midwifery professions’ response, for which I am enormously grateful.”
“Ruth leaves big shoes to fill, but I am grateful that she will stay with us for a while yet as we start the search for our next CNO, giving us all plenty of time to say our personal thanks and goodbyes.”“As chief nursing officer, Ruth has helped strengthen the nursing and midwifery workforce, championing career development and mental health,” she added.
