National Nurses Week 2024: RN reflects on the state of the profession, calls for change by Julia Gomez, USA TODAY, 

"Monday, May 6 kicks off National Nurses Week, and it gives folks an opportunity to show their love and appreciation for the people who take care of the sick, injured and dying.

From neonatal nurses who help welcome newborns into the world to hospice nurses that provide peace and comfort to their dying patients, nurses play a crucial role in the medical industry.

According to the American Association of Colleges of Nurses, nurses make up the largest part of the healthcare workforce, are the primary health providers for patients in hospitals and give the most long-term care in the nation."

USA TODAY also linked to a really nice video they made in 2021 to show Nurse Appreciation
You can skip the AD if it comes before the video starts, and then we suggest that you close the video window directly after the Nurse Appreciation Video as the next AD come up because other USA Today videos follow that are not related.
