Why Nurses are Heroes

National Nurses Day.

National Nurses Day is on May 6th; however, the awareness week is from May 6th to the 12th. These are days to remind everyone to take the time to thank all the nurses that have ever been in your life. We take this moment to acknowledge the job’s difficulty, stressfulness, and dedication needed to be a great nurse. We thank all of Signature’s & other nurses for their skilled, loving care, courage, and tenacity because we understand all that it takes to be a nurse.

We have been through a lot.

Society has been through a lot; we have faced pandemics, wars, and historical events that have impacted humanity’s history. But, the critical role that nurses have played in all these events sometimes is not recognized enough.

Nurses make up 59% of healthcare professionals, with over 28 million nurses worldwide. Did you know that the first record of nurses dates back to 300 A.D. in the Roman Empire? Or maybe that nurses walk an equivalent to a 5k every shift?

So are nurses heroes? Of course!

Nurses have always been there for us. They risk their lives every day for their patients without asking for anything. We must recognize that everything we know today about healthcare, sanitation, how food is prepared and served, how to treat wounded patients to prevent the spread of infection, and protocols are due to the nurses. Especially Florence Nightingale, a pioneer in the nursing profession, who helped many soldiers during the Crimean War. She challenged the way nurses were trained and how society viewed nursing as a profession.
