🇺🇸 This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the brave heroes who gave their lives in service to our country. We also recognize the dedication and sacrifice of our nurse veterans — compassionate caregivers who have served both in uniform and at the bedside.

Their courage, strength, and commitment to caring for others continue to inspire us every day. Today, we remember the fallen, honor those who served, and thank the nurse veterans who have answered the call to serve in more ways than one. ❤️🤍💙👩🏽‍⚕️👩🏽‍⚕️🩺🩺
