May 04, 2021 Through the Turbulence I'm So Excited to Wish YOU A Happy Nurses Month!

We are still working our way through this pandemic, and no one deserves to set aside some time to celebrate more than nurses. I hope you and your medical-surgical colleagues are showered with gratitude, find time and activities to rejuvenate, and receive an immense amount of meaningful recognition.

Here at AMSN, we could not appreciate you more, and we look forward to giving away prizes and applauding you this month.
