National Nurses Week
National Nurses week is celebrated on May 6th and opens National
Nurses Week. National Nurses Week begins each year on May 6th and
ends on May 12th, the birth date of Florence Nightingale.
National Nurses Week is one of the largest health care events, recognizing the
contributions and commitments nurses make and educating the public about the
significant work they perform. The American Nurses Association (ANA) supports
National Nurses Week through state and district nurses associations, educational
facilities, and independent health care companies and institutions. The
week-long celebration is designed to accommodate the variety of schedules nurses
are required to work.
Activities during National Nurses Week typically include banquets and
recognition dinners, state and city proclamations, continuing education
seminars, and other community events. Nurses are typically honored with gifts,
dinners, and flowers by friends and family members, coworkers such as doctors
and administrators, and patients who want to show their appreciation.
