Our 2021 National Nurses Week tribute video celebrates nurses and calls attention to everything they have endured during the past year. With courage, compassion, and resilience the 4 million+ RNs and LPNs in the U.S. and the nurses across the globe persevered during the COVID-19 pandemic to care for the rest of us. National Nurses week is celebrated May 6-12, but we will honor nurses all month long and beyond. Please take a moment to watch this video, sponsored by South University, and share it with nurses, family members, and friends. Thank you, nurses. Happy National Nurses Week and Nurses Month!
