Did You Know?

You Can Honor A Nurse

It’s time for the nation to recognize the dedication of our 4 million invaluable registered nurses and the lives they touch!
If you’ve experienced the power of a great nurse, you won’t forget it. The wisdom, the skill and the dedication that nurses show every day, sets them apart as very special people. When a patient receives life-changing care, how can they or their friends and family possibly express their gratitude?
Through the Honor A Nurse Program, you can say a heartfelt thank you to an individual nurse, while at the same time enable nurses to help more people, every day.
