Celebrate National Nurses Week / Month

National Nurses Week is the highlight of the year for nurses. Read on to learn about Nurses Week, why we celebrate it, and its history.

What is National Nurses Week?

Every year from May 6th to 12th, nurses are recognized for their service and dedication to caring for others and improving the health of patients nationwide through National Nurses Week. Throughout the week, healthcare organizations celebrate their teams, and you’ll even see nurses featured on the news. People across the nation thank the nurses who have made a difference in their lives. 

Nurses Week celebrates the effort, dedication, and sacrifice nurses make every day. Nurses are essential members of America’s healthcare workforce who provide care through every stage of life, working with patients at their most intimate and vulnerable moments. Nurses Week offers a chance to highlight and celebrate nurses for all we do. 

When is Nurses Week 2024?

This year, National Nurses Week is celebrated from May 6 – May 12. The week is just a part of the larger National Nurses Month, which is celebrated from May 1 to the 31st. 

What is the 2024 Nurses Week Theme?

This year’s theme is “Nurses Make the Difference” and, according to the ANA, “honors the incredible nurses who embody the spirit of compassion and care in every health care setting.”

The theme is accompanied by the campaign #NursesLightUpTheSky where, around the world, landmarks will be lit up to celebrate nurses and rally support for all that they do.
