Nurses are an indispensable part of our health care system. From long-term care facilities to emergency services, to hospitals and everything in between, nurses provide skills and expertise that keep our province safe. As the pandemic reminded us all, health care is a collective mission, one that we all take part in on a daily basis.
We know that nursing is a difficult job. Those called to this profession do it with a mind to help everyone live their best lives. As heath care workers, we should all stand together, proud of the work we do. As members of the public, we must support our nurses through every effort to improve the workplace. Every gain that nurses make towards better job security, benefits, workloads and compensation benefits the residents of Ontario as a whole.
In recognition of the invaluable, steadfast dedication that nurses in so many workplaces demonstrate day in and day out, please join us in celebrating National Nursing Week from May 6 to 12, 2025.
