NURSES OF THE YEAR NOMINATIONS
Nurses. They are vital to our health care. Sometimes you end up spending more time with a nurse than you do the doctor. We love and appreciate all of our nurses in Mifflin and Juniata Counties. Every. Single. one.
So, to celebrate National Nurses Week, Merf Radio has teamed with Shade Mountain Naturals to honor them by having their biggest fans nominate and vote for them as one of our five to-be-named Nurses of the Year! Each winning nurse will receive a $75 gift card to Shade Mountain Naturals, which they can use on any of the products Shade Mountain offer. Or they can book a massage! Their gift to do with what they will!
