May 6 marks the beginning of National Nurses Week. Nursing is a very diverse career. Most often people think of nurses as working in a hospital setting, but nurses do so much more. For example, I am a LPN and have started this new business called Air Companions. Air Companions accompanies people with limited medical needs in air travel. This new venture is a dream come true for me. I, too, have worked in hospitals, nursing homes, done case management for Area Agencies on Aging, and run senior assisted living communities. Also, for the past 20 years I have cared for disabled adults in my home. And now I am beginning a new chapter in my life. It's very exciting. Because of that I want to celebrate National Nurses Week. A career in nursing has been very good to me and I want to celebrate it! I'm sure you have a nurse in your life. Thank her for all her hard work and wish her well.
Below you will find a link to the American Nurses Association website. They are celebrating National Nurses Week big time. When you get a chance, take a look.
Happy National Nurses Week to all my nurse friends!
Above is the only picture I could find of myself in a nurses uniform. It was taken at least 25 years ago. I had just gotten out of work and attended a family reunion in Hope. The photo is a five generation picture of my mother's side of the family.
