National Nurses Week 2012: Nurses: Advocating, Leading, Caring

Updated on August 28, 2023

Often described as an art and a science, nursing is a profession that embraces dedicated people with varied interests, strengths and passions because of the many opportunities the profession offers. As nurses, we work in emergency rooms, school based clinics, and homeless shelters, to name a few. We have many roles – from staff nurse to educator to nurse practitioner and nurse researcher – and serve all of them with passion for the profession and with a strong commitment to patient safety. National Nurses Week runs May 6-May 12. Learn more.
