Full disclosure: My Mom is a nurse. So I'd probably love nurses even if they weren't the best that humanity has to offer -- which they are. If you need someone to care for you when you're sick and unpleasant, or tell you a hard truth about what you need to do to get healthier, or tell you the funniest (and sometimes dirtiest) jokes you ever heard, nurses are the people to see.

Nurses' Week: Honor Your Favorite Nurse
Before I read this piece, I thought Nurses' Week might have been planned to coincide with Mother's Day. (Which is not to say that there aren't plenty of male nurses in the world.) But actually, the date was chosen because May 12 is Florence Nightingale's birthday.

Suggestions for Celebrating Nurses' Week
Most of the nurses I know celebrate Nurses' Week by working, as usual, but that doesn't mean that you can't do something special for your favorite nurse. Candy and flowers are always a hit.

How Do I Become a Nurse?
One of the best nurses I ever met -- my Mom's friend Joanne -- wasn't a Registered Nurse, but rather a Nursing Assistant. I knew her for 20 years before I found out she didn't have her R.N. I mention this, because a lot of people don't realize how many types of nurses there are.
