National Nurses Week!

May 6-12 marks National Nurses Week, providing a wonderful opportunity to honor and acknowledge the remarkable contributions of nurses who are the backbone of healthcare systems across the globe. This year's theme, "The Power of Nurses," highlights the significant influence nurses have in the realm of healthcare. Their compassion, knowledge, resilience, and steadfast dedication to enhancing the lives of others truly embodies this power.

To our perianesthesia colleagues, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for ensuring the safety and well-being of our patients and their families during vulnerable times. Your unwavering passion for perianesthesia nursing is truly inspiring.
