Palm Beach Health Network is proud to honor our nurses during National Nurses Week, May 6-12. This annual celebration recognizes the critical role nurses perform in our hospital and for our community. Our theme this year is Thank you for your power to heal. Every day, our nurses show what true care looks like. Their compassion, strength and dedication transform patient care into something truly exceptional. What sets them apart is not only what they do, but how they do it – with empathy, resilience and unwavering confidence in the skill and experience they have worked so hard to achieve.

National Nurses Week is celebrated annually to coincide with the birthday of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing, on May 12. Like Florence Nightingale, our nurses serve with passion and dedication, fighting for their patients every day. As Florence Nightingale did in her time, our nurses represent a profession of advocacy and strength.

“Every day, we are thankful to all of our nurses and humbled by the way they care for our patients,” said Maggie Gill, Maggie Gill, Group President for Palm Beach Health Network and Tenet Healthcare’s East Coast region. “Our nurses are respected for their unwavering devotion to our patients, their families and each other. Their resilience, leadership, support and immense sensitivity are at the heart of our continued focus to deliver compassionate care.”

Our nurses have many roles – staff nurse, nursing leader, educator, infection preventionist, nurse practitioner and more. They serve these roles with a passion for the profession, their patients, team members and a strong commitment to patient safety.

“Nurses Week is a special time of year to celebrate the remarkable nurses, healthcare workers and Palm Beach Health Network team members,” Gill said. “We are grateful to all of our teams every day for putting our patients first and for their essential support to ensure every patient in our community receives high-quality care.”

To our nurses, we say thank you for being champions of care and your power to heal. You cheer patients up when they need encouragement and advocate for the greatest good. Thank you for your steadfast care – a vital sign of your devotion to your patients and each other. You are the heart of our mission and the soul of our organization.
