We are going to celebrate the National Nurses Week starting May 6 until May 12. In Canada, they will celebrate in on May 11 to 17. It is one way of showing our appreciation to thousands of nurses with their outstanding dedication, caring to patients and excellent practice.
We’ve been celebrating the National Recognition Day for Nurses yearly on May 6 since it was assigned by President Ronald Reagan in 1982. It was designated by the American Nurse’s Association from May 6 through May 12 several years later and a permanent observance of Nurse’s Week.
Nurses care for our sick and elderly. Somehow, they have touched our lives. We can be at least be nice to them and appreciate what they are doing.
