Nurses Trusted to Care - Nurses Week 2011

As National Nurses Week is noted today through May 12, we at the Midwest Bariatric Institute express our undying gratitude and admiration for the many acts of kindness, bravery, compassion and giving, especially during tough times, which are part of daily life for the nurses who serve our hospital. Their feats often go unheralded and are known only to them and the patients they serve so well.

Nurses are a backbone to our medical staffs; without their services, we could not exist. Their duties are many, their toils are steady. They see our patients through the best and worst times and often shed tears of joy, and sorrow, with them. Our nurses, in a word, are love. The Midwest Bariatric Institute honors them during their week, and appreciates what they do every week.

National Nurses Week celebrates the committment made by nurses to provide the highest quality of care. We honor all nurses who provide superior compassionate and joyful care for our patients. Every day you serve the needs of our community with skilled hands and hearts. Thank you.
