Month: May 2022

Older Americans Month is observed every May. It focuses on again place, in an attempt to keep older adults comfortable in their homes and living independently in their communities for as long as possible.  This year's theme is Age My Way, a chance to explore the many ways older adults can be involved with their communities. Take time this month to think about what you want in the future and how you'll remain involved and connected with your community.

Nurses make a difference. This month we recognize the vast contributions and positive impact of America’s 4 million registered nurses. National Nurses Month honors our nation's nurse heroes and their contributions to the health and well-being of our communities. Nurses make a difference as trusted advocates who ensure individuals, families, and populations receive quality patient care and services. They influence and shape health policy decisions that ensure all Americans have access to high-quality health care.  Whether it is a national health emergency or routine daily care, nurses’ vital contributions impact the health and well-being of our communities.
