While Nurses Day has been observed by the government since 1982, nurses nationwide have celebrated since 1953. Nurses have one of the most thankless jobs out there today. Sometimes patients don’t realize just how much goes into caring for them on a daily basis.

Nurses work longer and harder hours than many “outsiders” would ever realize. Nurses are dedicated, passionate people who want to help make as many people as possible feel better. Nurses week is a fantastic way for all the nurses to get together and appreciate what each other does on a daily basis and with a smile on their faces (most of the time). It is also a great public awareness event that reminds everyone about the nurses they have interacted with in the past and to show appreciation for them.
