National Emergency Nurses Day takes place on the 13th of October 2021. This day was established to honour the devotion of emergency room nurses across the country. It’s time to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to the emergency room nurses for their perseverance, service, and commitment. Their dedication to their profession is recognised as they give unwavering care to their patients and their families.
Why are emergency nurses deserving of particular recognition? Simply said, they make a big difference in the lives of many every day by providing crucial assistance and support.
Emergency Nurses Day, as the name suggests, is a day to honour all of the hard work that people who work in this field accomplish. After all, working in this field necessitates a unique personality. You must be able to act quickly, think decisively, and have a strong stomach.
When we experience an accident or a medical emergency, emergency nurses are the first people we encounter. They strive tirelessly to make us feel at ease and to alleviate our pain and anguish. The day urges us to express our gratitude for their contributions to keeping hospitals functioning properly, especially during the global pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the genius of our nursing community more than ever before. Nurses have demonstrated leadership at all levels of our healthcare system in order to meet the pandemic’s unprecedented demands.
“As a nurse, we have the opportunity to heal the mind, soul, heart, and body of our patients, their families, and ourselves. They may forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”
