Celebrating National Nurses Week at UP Health System - Marquette

Established in 1954, the National Nurses Week Celebration recognizes nurses and their strong commitment to and fervent compassion for their patients. The annual recognition first honored the 100th anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s service and leadership during the Crimean War. Held annually May 6-12, the observance ends on Nightingale’s birthday, May 12.
We are proud to celebrate our nurses, who serve as dedicated and dependable caregivers for patients and their loved ones throughout their healthcare journey. Whether a routine check-up at your provider’s office, an outpatient visit, or a trip to our emergency department with a hospital stay, our nurses provide compassionate, individualized care, knowing that every patient is unique.
It is an honor to recognize all of our hardworking nurses this week and to thank them for the selfless devotion they provide to our patients.
