It’s International Nurses
Week 2014: Have You
Thanked a Nurse For
Their Hard Work?
The International Council of Nurses (ICN) gave birth to Nurses Week in 1965.
Every year since, Nurses Week is celebrated from May 6 to May 12. The week culminates in "Nurses Day" on May 12, the birthday of Florence Nightingale, widely considered the founder of modern nursing.
So how can you celebrate Nurses Week
and the upcoming Nurses Day?
Simple: Thank any nurses you might
know for their service or reach out to
nurses or aides at your local doctor's of-
fice.
You might make a phone call, send a note, or mail a card to recognize a nurse. If you want to go the electronic route, Blue Mountain's Nurses Day cards may come in handy.
Activities during National Nurses Week often include banquets and recog-nition dinners, state and city proclama-tions, continuing education seminars, and other community events.

I’d like to recommend Dr. Sandra Knight’s practice, Harmony Health. The location is unbeatable, you can cross the street and be there for your appointment. It has also been nice to have a practice where the whole family can go if you’re all sick and needing to be seen at the same time. -Cherryl
