Welcome to our new Chair – Christina Butterworth
FOHN has restructured and now has a single Board responsible for the leadership and operation of the Faculty.
I was pleased to be appointed as the new Chair of the FOHN and to accept this rewarding and exciting task role. Being able to work with some great people to demonstrate leadership and quality in occupational health nursing.
Leadership in occupational health is the founding principle of the profession, helping all stakeholders to navigate the complexities and potentially extraordinary impact of occupational health services and initiatives.
Quality in both education and practice will ensure a fit for purpose occupational health nursing resource that can meet and pre-empt the needs of individuals, organisations, peers and partners in the delivery of workplace health and wellbeing. Ensuring that our people, time and finances address health leadership, health risk management, fitness for work and wellbeing.
