Are You Ready for National Nurses Week?

National Nurses Week kicks off this Sunday, May 6 and runs through Saturday, May 12, Florence Nightingale's birthday. National Nurses Week has been celebrated since 1990, but it can trace its roots back to the 1950s. The theme of this year's celebration is "Nurses: Advocating, Leading, Caring."
