Although Spring weather may not have arrived in your community, it's time for the 2014 Spring Article Contest in the allnurses community. We invite everyone to participate. The top four articles will each win $150. The winners will be selected by the members in a poll.

Nursing is a profession that can have a lasting impact on many people. Your role as a nurse, in whatever field you are in, can make a difference in the lives of patients, families, and communities. We are looking for articles that exemplify the educational, inspirational, and positive aspects of nursing.

Next month is Nurses Day/Week. It is a time when others can express their appreciation to the nursing profession. One of the topics we invite you to write about is Nurses Day/Week. What does it mean to you? What expressions of appreciation have you had that meant a lot to you....not just on Nurses Day, but throughout the year?

Also coming up in May, allnurses will once again be attending the National Teaching Institute & Critical Care Exposition in Denver. We would like to highlight critical care articles.

Articles can encompass daily work, past experience, education, study tips, technology, etc. With this contest you can write about anything. However, the following articles will have priority. Any article that deals with the following (in any way/shape/form) will be given priority when selecting the Top 10:

  • Critical Care
  • Appreciation
  • Nurses' Day/Week
  • Personal professional victories
  • Hope
  • Giving Back
  • Student stories

Articles must be submitted between April 1st - June 30th.

allnurses.com is available for nurses by nurses. It is a place where you can learn, communicate, and network with more than 801,000 nurses. You can learn more about nursing as a career, find tips on networking with fellow colleagues, read personal stories, and/or discuss day-to-day nursing activity.

4 winners will be chosen with a total cash value of $600! Each winner rewarded $150!

You will help select the winners - a Top 10 poll will be available at the end of the quarter. A week later we will announce the 4 winners.
