Honouring Nurses Who Care, Lead and Inspire | IND 2025

International Nurses Day | the 12th of May 2025

Every year on May 12th, the world comes together to celebrate International Nurses Day—a day to recognise the nursing profession's heart, skill, and strength. At Infectious Clothing Company, we're proud to support nurses across Australia who show up, speak up, and care deeply daily.

In 2025, the theme is "Our Nurses. Our Future. The Economic Power of Care."

It's a powerful reminder that nurses don't just care — they drive better health outcomes, stronger communities, and a more resilient healthcare system. Their work is not just important, it's indispensable.

The Backbone of Healthcare

Nurses are everywhere, from busy emergency rooms to aged care homes, school clinics, and remote outposts. They are the first to comfort, the last to leave, and often the only ones truly holding the system together.

While nursing is one of the most trusted professions in the world, it's also one of the most demanding—physically, emotionally, and mentally. The work can be relentless, but the impact is immeasurable.

Today, we pause to thank you, not just as a company, but as individuals touched by your care and dedication.

Beyond the Bedside

Nurses are more than caregivers. They are educators, advocates, researchers, and leaders. They're redefining healthcare daily — leading innovations, pushing for better policies, and mentoring the next generation.

They advocate for safety. They drive efficiency. They change lives.

Infectious and Nurses: A Proud Partnership

For over twenty years, Infectious has been dressing and supporting Australian nurses with uniforms designed for performance, durability, and all-day comfort. We are here for you because we understand the importance of your work.

Here's how we honour the work you do:

• We stock brands you trust, like Cherokee, Dickies, WonderWink and more — built for long shifts and high standards.
• We offer inclusive sizing, from petite to plus-size, because all bodies deserve great fit and function.
• We simplify shopping with Afterpay and Zip Pay, fast shipping, and expert support.
• We listen to your feedback and update our ranges based on what nurses need.
• We proudly support nursing students and clinics across Australia, from hospitals to home care.

Your Scrubs Are a Symbol

The uniform you wear is more than fabric. It signals to your patients that someone skilled, kind, and dependable is beside them. We don't take that lightly — and that's why we partner with the best brands in healthcare to ensure you feel confident and comfortable in what you wear.

Because when you're moving between patients, running to codes, staying late, or arriving early, your scrubs shouldn't hold you back.

Final Words

Thank you to every nurse in Australia and the teams that support them.

Thank you for your care, your grit, your knowledge, your humour, and your strength.

We see you. We appreciate you. We stand with you.

Happy International Nurses Day from all of us at Infectious.
