Any other places doing "Hospital Employees' Week" instead of Nurses' Week?

Apparently nurses get too much attention or something.

I worked for a healthcare system that did that, it had a much more pretentious name for it, though. (So smug that I forget what it is.)

And I'm a bit steamed that Teachers' Week aligns with ours. They couldn't do that a different week?

Yep.... but I still get a pen.

I think our hospital does that.

Although this may come off as "crusty", I think the whole "fill-in-the-blank day/week" concept is sort of condescending...

You mean you didn't celebrate National Penguin Day??!

Hospital Week!!

Bring it on.

It totally eliminates that "P on my leg and tell me it's raining" thing that has been going on with Nurse's Week for awhile now.

I'm all for Truth in Celebrating!

As long as I get my free pen and cookie they can call it whatever they want.

Damn. Do they make "Happy Belated National Penguin Day" cards?
