Last week, I noticed a poster advertising special activities all week long for "National Hospital Week" in 2 weeks. These activities are things like an ice cream social, a talent show, etc. All events that sound like fun and I would like to participate.
However, I heard no mention of Nurse's Week. One of the CNAs on my floor even argued with me that it couldn't be that week because she hadn't heard anything about it.
It's pretty insulting, honestly. Administration thinks so little of nurses that they don't even acknowledge a week nationally dedicated to thanking us for choosing our profession.
I've considered writing an (anonymous) note to my CEO or CNO or SOMEONE to let them know how saddened I was by the situation. Feedback?
