Every day, we are filled with gratitude for the incredible nurses here at Westhills Village! As we celebrate National Nurses Week, we want to take a moment to shine a spotlight on our amazing LPNs and RNs. This special week, celebrated every year, began back in October 1952 to honor the legacy of Florence Nightingale, who devoted her life to caring for soldiers during the Crimean War.

Over time, the American Nurses Association turned National Nurse’s Day into a full week of celebration! Nursing is a truly fulfilling career, requiring immense dedication, knowledge, compassion, and an extraordinary sense of empathy for others. Our nurses not only work hand-in-hand with doctors but also serve as a vital connection between patients and their families. Many of the most crucial aspects of patient care rest on their capable shoulders.

National Nurses Week is our chance to extend our heartfelt appreciation to those who provide care to our residents in our health care facility, assisted living, and home health agency. A huge thank you to our nurses at Westhills Village and to every nurse out there! Your commitment to our community is invaluable, and we can never express our gratitude enough! Happy National Nurses Week to all the remarkable nurses—you are cherished more than words can say!
