We are dedicated to providing opportunities for nurses in the cystic fibrosis specialism, and improving the lives of patients, families, and carers. We equip nurses with the knowledge and skills to deliver exceptional care through educational opportunities, resource sharing, and peer support.
We advocate for evidence-based practices, actively promoting, conducting, and disseminating research. Additionally, we offer educational grants to support nurses pursuing further education in CF care and ensure our voices are heard by maintaining representation in national committees and working parties.
The CFNA is committed to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion in everything we do. We feel passionately that inequalities or discrimination should not exist and we actively want to play a part in tackling this. We are an organisation where diversity is embraced, celebrated and welcomed. We stand against all forms of discrimination and prejudice, whether on the grounds of ethnic background, sex, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, disability, or any other aspect of a person’s identity. We will always champion tolerance, fairness and equality in all aspects of our work. We recognise that inequalities in society lead to inequalities in health outcomes and this is no different for those affected by CF, as for any health condition. Our nurses respect and embrace diversity and are committed to caring for individuals with CF and their families.
