The Southern African Network of Nurses and Midwives (SANNAM) was formed in 2000 after the nurses and midwives of the region realised the importance of expanding their role in the fight against HIV/AIDS. The aim of SANNAM is to improve national health services and social policies related to HIV/AIDS and other critical health challenges.
They realise the importance of pooling resources and working as a region in order to strengthen the contribution of nurses and midwives.
HIV/AIDS is a serious health problem, and the nurses and midwives of the region, who are the major role players in both health institutions and communities, want to reaffirm the vision by striving to raise the quality of care for HIV/AIDS patients and their relatives.
They also want to equip Nurses and midwives and to protect them from the transmission of disease and other related hazards within their professional Environment, and to conduct training workshops and in- service training targeting nurses and midwives.
The main strategy is to build the capacity of the National Nurses’ Associations (NNAs) in order to enable them to provide support to the nurses and midwives to maximize their role in the fight against HIV/Aids.
