It's National Nurses week! Nurses care for patients like no one else — and not just when it comes to treatment. When we need a reassuring smile, a hand to hold, or just to know that someone is there with us, nurses are there. This week, we're saying “thank you” to all of the nurses who work so hard every day to care for their patients.

Nurses are the heart and soul of health care in this country — so let's show them the appreciation they deserve. Will you show your thanks by signing a card today? We'll deliver your note to Planned Parenthood health center staff in your area.

Planned Parenthood health center nurses work so hard to ensure that people have access to the full range of reproductive health care — including cancer screenings, birth control, testing and treatment for STDs, and accurate sexual and reproductive health information.

Nurses protect the lives and health of millions of people, families, and communities daily by providing quality health care with skill, dedication, and with compassion.

Nurses are always there for their patients. The least we can do is show how much we appreciate them this week. Show your appreciation with a thank you today!

And thank YOU for staying with us,
