About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

The QICN's Homeless and Inclusion Health Network meetings are an opportunity for people working within the sector to come together monthly to connect and give service updates on what’s happening around the country. Nurses working with the homeless population, asylum seekers, refugees, and the GRTBS (gypsy, roma, traveller, boater, and showman) communities are welcome to join.

It is a place to share good practice, challenges, ideas for innovation, discuss looking at policy, hear/give presentations, etc. and get advice and support from others. We welcome anyone working in the sector.

This month we will be hearing from:

  • Jonathan Reeve will be sharing the innovative work he does as an ANP working in a mental health homeless team in Manchester.

  • Sunny is a dentist who takes a holistic approach to oral health. Expect to learn how our oral microbiome and simple tests can give important clues to the state of our systemic health and advice we can share with our patients.

  • Rekha Vijayshankar will be sharing findings from her research on palliative care with resource-poor, racially minoritised communities.

The Queen's Institute of Community Nursing

The Queen’s Institute of Community Nursing is a registered charity dedicated to improving the nursing care of people in the home and community.

We promote excellent nursing care for everyone, where and when they need it, provided by nurses and their teams with specific skills and knowledge.

The QICN is the oldest professional nursing organisation in the UK and believed to be the oldest nursing charity in the world*.

The charity was originally founded to organise the training of District Nurses and this was its core function until the 1960s, in a model that was copied across the world. It was instrumental in developing a comprehensive, highly-skilled service to meet the healthcare needs of millions of people every year and is one of the pillars of the National Health Service.
