*Happy Nurses Week 2024*

Happy Nurses Week to each and every one of you who make up this EXCEPTIONAL chapter!

This week, we celebrate each of you as we memorialize the one who paved the way for us, the birthday (May 12th) of the Lady with the Lamp, Florence Nightingale.

The Inland Empire Chapter of the American Association of Critical Care Nurses wants to THANK each of YOU for what you do every day for our patients, community and the future of nursing.

Take this moment to stop and recognize all that you do for the good of others, no effort is too small. We thank you.

The work you do is not only important, but it is absolutely AMAZING! We thank you.

The care you provide care isn’t always easy. In fact, most times it can be challenging, physically, mentally and emotionally, but YOU do it and you do it well. We thank you.  

In a world full of chaos, you bring comfort and care to patients and families during their most vulnerable moments. We thank you.  

You instill hope and illuminate the world with your compassion and service. We thank you.  

Your efforts, integrity, and dedication to your patients inspire your peers and the world. We thank you.  

Nurses are the HEART of the healthcare workforce. Be proud of the WHO you are and the acts of kindness you DO.

Thank you for making this world a better place, by adding a little more love where it is needed.
