Nursing is so much more than a job or a career. It truly is a calling.

My mother was a nurse and she embraced that calling for nearly 20 years. And last year, the family tradition continued when my sister answered her calling and became a nurse. Their commitment and dedication are a tremendous source of inspiration for me; I am a proud son and brother!

Every day, my team and I are lucky to learn from and work alongside many talented and dedicated nurses and nurse leaders. During National Nurses Week, we want to take a moment to say thank you.

Thank you for showing us all what it means to embrace a calling by demonstrating professional expertise, compassion, and human kindness every day. On behalf of my entire team, thank you for being the heart and soul of the patient experience.

With gratitude and appreciation,
Jake
