National Nurses Week 2022: Spotlights National Nurse Shortage

Nurses Week is a yearly event each year in May to honor current, past, and future nurses. The event is acknowledged with ceremonies, educational programs, and community celebrations. Events for Nurses Week are held at the national, state, county, and local levels.

Nurses Week programs are geared toward educating the public about the contributions nurses make to health care.

Nurses Week events usually do not highlight the essential role that home health care nurses play in the system.
