National Nurse's Week

Hey, it is thank a Nurse Week! 

Join us in recognizing the good work of all the men and women, who help care for people in hospitals, nursing homes, assisted care facilities, and many more for all of their hard work. Doctors would not be able to do their jobs effectively without these people to help them. So, hug a nurse and thank them for everything that they do.
