NATIONAL NURSES’ WEEK Take a moment to tell a nurse thank you! May 6-12 is National Nurses’ Week, an annual recognition of the contribution of the nation’s 3 million nurses, and May 12 is the birthdate of Florence Nightingale, founder of modern nursing. While the first National Nurses Week was celebrated in 1954 – the 100th anniversary of Nightingale’s famous mission to the Crimea – it wasn’t until President Ronald Reagan signed a proclamation that May 6th would henceforth be National Nurses Day that the annual celebration of nurses’ efforts would be nationally recognized. We take pride in the fact that the public has rated nursing as the most honest and ethical profession for the past 16 years. Our commitment to protecting, promoting, and improving health care for all is well recognized, and we serve the public in a wide range of roles and work settings. Therefore, it is only fitting that we take one week each year to celebrate our profession and the vital roles nurses play in health care.
