Working on the frontlines, behind masks and face shields, Michigan s 187,000 licensed nursing professionals have been the symbol of strength and health to all of us and especially to those isolated in nursing homes and hospitals. With strong dedication to their profession and the people they care for, licensed nursing professionals have gone above and beyond to care for their patients during pandemic times, often substituting for absent patient family members while isolating from their own families. It is with a great debt of gratitude that we recognize these hardworking healthcare professionals every day, and especially during National Nurses Week, May 6-12, 2021.
