Celebrate Nurses Article Contest

Nurses Week is here. We’ve already started the celebration early with contests and a list of Freebies for Nurses. Now...something else to add… An article contest. This article contest will be different than the rest.

Celebrate Nurses Article Contest

$600 in Cash Prizes! $200 Each for the Top 3 Articles

As nurses, you know about many of the different facets of the nursing profession, but I'll bet no one knows all there is to know about all the various specialties and areas of nursing. Nursing is not a one-size-fits-all. Yes, we all have a license. But there are so many nursing specialties and different types of jobs that require specialized nursing training. Who better to highlight a day in the lives of nurses walking many different paths in their careers than the fabulous nurses here at allnurses?

Article Topics:

For this contest, we want you to share the specialty area you work in, the training required, your job description, a typical day, why you chose this area of nursing, etc. This is a great way to celebrate the vast diversity of the nursing profession.
