I joined just over 6 years now. I think it's an extremely supportive network. I enjoy the events and learn so much from the other nurses. I feel that I have improved my practice by having such a wealth of knowledge at my finger tips. I've recently joined their board. I'm super impressed at how professional everything is and the passion on shaping the nursing practice in this area.
DANAI is an absolute must for any nurse who is considering entering aesthetic medicine! It will equip them with the necessary skills around legislation, protocols and best practice. Having the support of experienced nurses who already work within the area is invaluable.

We are growing from strength to strength. The support, mentorship, and the continuous professional education enable us to develop this Association year on year.
