All this week, we re celebrating National Nurse s Week with Diamond Valley Federal Credit Union by honoring a different Tri-State area nurse who s been nominated for recognition by you.
Of course, like all medical personnel, nurses play an extremely important role in patient care whether it s a simple trip to the doctor s office for a check-up or something more serious that requires a stay at the hospital. When it comes to the latter, nurses are often the medical professionals that spend the most time with patients; delivering and making sure medications are being taken, checking vital signs, and doing what they can to make sure their patients are as comfortable as possible during their hospital stay.
