Celebrating Our Nurses
At Kaiser Permanente, we have a long-standing commitment to creating an environment that fosters collaboration, growth, and learning for all our nurses. We empower our nurses and encourage them to rise to greater heights of leadership, professional development, quality, and safety.
The last year has easily been one of the most challenging years professional nurses around the globe have ever experienced. In the wake of these challenges, our nurses’ dedication to being an industry-leading voice for advancing care did not waver.
For Nurses Month, and every month, we’re showing our appreciation for all our nurse heroes for the vital contributions they make as leaders, clinicians, researchers, innovators, and scientists. They are an integral part of how we advance our mission of improving the health of our members.
