April 11, 2022 Certification Central President’s Message

Happy spring to everyone and I wish you a wonderful Nurses’ Week coming up in May! I love this time of year as we begin to see a renewal of life and resources in nature. Flowers are blooming, leaves are returning, butterflies are merging, and there is a lot of positive energy in the universe.

This is such a phenomenal time of the year. And it looks like we may be finally getting a reprieve from COVID! Please still be cautious, but we can all be hopeful that the worst is finally behind us.
