Nurses Month continues. The celebration has not ended. The traditional Nurses Week celebrations take place from May 6 to 12, but the COVID-19 Pandemic brought nursing the the forefront. Nurses became the heros of the healthcare industry for showing up and caring for patients in all stages of this disastrous disease, and still show up today to care for the lingering long COVID patients as well as those newly diagnosed.
