RINGS meetings are held approximately every 4 months. The aim is to bring together specialist nurses affiliated with respiratory medicine whatever their area of expertise is in. Our purpose being to network, share ideas, to facilitate evidence based good working practice and to work together to highlight the definite needs in the ever evolving field of Respiratory Medicine.

We also have one study day a year. The speakers and topics at the request of the members. Nurses who wish to join the group must complete an application form and be proposed and seconded by core members of the group. The group has a constitution which we adhere to.
