While every week should be Nursing Week, DNIG is taking this unique opportunity to thank you for your tireless dedication to improve the health of clients and communities across Ontario.
While nurses contribute to the health of our society in quite diverse ways there is something fundamental that ties us together, that makes us nurses. That "something" is often debated but it is safe to say that nurses are the bedrock of any health-care system. Only a nurse understands what it means and what it takes to be a nurse, to serve others in their most vulnerable times, day after day.
As you seek to showcase your contribution over the next week and to be recognized for it, be proud of who you are and what you do. Take this opportunity when eyes are upon you to provide your very valuable insights to those making decisions in health care. Without nurses there is no health care. Be confident in what you know.
RNAO is hosting a number of events throughout the week - see the listings here: https://RNAO.ca/events/nursing-week
DNIG – along with RNAO – is here to support you as you speak out for nursing.
Thank you for choosing nursing. We hope you can carve out some time to treat yourselves in a small (or large) way in celebration of the incredible work you do.
Your DNIG Executive
