From the ANA SmartBrief

Nurses Week is a time to honor nurses, address health care issues
Hospital leaders who understand the spirit of Nurses Week, May 6 to 12, use the occasion to recognize nurses by discussing health care-related issues and helping nurses spend more time at the bedside, while those who don't get its meaning think of the week as a moment to give gifts and talk about "angels of caring," Rebecca Hendren writes. This year's celebration should emphasize the positive accomplishments of nurses but at the same time be used to discuss room for improvements, Hendren says. HealthLeaders Media (5/3)


Really a KISS and a SLAP? One week out of the year that Nurses are to get recognition and this so called leader suggests that we should also look at our need to improve?


Again? REALLY? Like we do not hear that enough the rest of the year? Hmmmm, I'll send that personal Thanks later.... ;-)
