We are proud to celebrate National Nurses Week every year. No matter the day, the situation or the care specialty, nurses across Maine work tirelessly to keep people as safe and as healthy as possible. This year, during an unprecedented public health crisis, we invited our readers to share their messages of gratitude to the nurses in their lives. Your letters make us feel hopeful—these nurses, and so many not named here, are staunch advocates for their patients, expert and efficient multitaskers and compassionate caregivers to family and friends.
To those that wrote in, thank you for sharing your stories with all of us. To nurses in our lives who have cared for us and our loved ones over the years—thank you.
