This week, as we honor and celebrate the millions of nurses who keep us healthy, we want to extend a special thank you to each of the nursing professionals we partner with. This year’s Nurses Week theme is Nurses: Inspire, Innovate, Influence.

“Nurses often are the people who motivate us to live healthier lives,” says Amanda Cruse, Senior Managing Director of The Execu|Search Group’s Healthcare division. “They are caregivers, teachers, advocates, and innovators. Often putting their patients’ needs above their own, we know our nurses work tirelessly to give back to their communities. We can’t thank you enough!”

National Nurses Week was originally established in 1954 to honor Florence Nightingale. Today it is a national event that celebrates the contributions that nurses and nursing make to the community. Learn more:  http://www.nursingworld.org/NationalNursesWeek-History
