Thank you to everyone who made this very Visionary Nurses Week a success! Having the opportunity to honor those in the profession, as well as encourage the future generation of nursing to be innovative in their approach to healthcare, has been nothing short of incredible.
Check out some of the highlights from the week:
This note from one of the teachers meant everything: "Thank you again for coming to speak, I thoroughly enjoyed your talk and could tell that my students were definitely engaged! You also made them think; probably about somethings that they have NEVER thought about before."
What a humbling moment!
And then there was celebrating my fellow nurses with R+F Consultant, Brie Holmes, and our wonderful opportunity to talk all things Self-Care and practical steps to being more balanced in our personal and professional endeavors. We even chatted about ways to supplement income that may be more sustainable than picking up extra shifts.
**LOOK: There's still time to be included in the self-care bundle raffle by watching and commenting on the event before 9p EST tonight! (5/14).
