In recognition of National Nurses Week from May 6 to May 10, 2019, Cooper University Health Care honors the committed, passionate nurses who provide expert care to our patients and their families. Your dedication and hard work make a positive difference in the health of our community and in the lives of those you care for.
Nursing leadership has planned a variety of activities to celebrate this special week. Continuing education opportunities will be brought to each unit throughout the week; you can also take advantage of the information table located outside the Cooper Court Cafeteria. Daily unit activities include ice cream socials, Spirit Day, hot dogs and popcorn, and a drawing for a basket of prizes. Ambulatory sites will be treated to pretzel trays throughout the week. Please see below for the full schedule of activities.
If you would like to share photos of you and your fellow nurses enjoying the festivities, you can email your photos to socialmedia@cooperhealth.edu.
Thank you for all you do!
