National Nurses’ Week begins May 6 and ends on May 12, Florence Nightingale’s birthday, to honor the dedication, strength, and perseverance of nurses in the field. The Berkeley Lab community extends its gratitude and appreciation to Juan Aranda, Amelia Atalig-Smith, Rangineh Bassir, Azure Chabot, Diane Fuller and Kelly Pratt! The Lab’s occupational health nurses wear many hats, including diagnosing and treating occupational injuries and illnesses, conducting the various surveillance exams, educating the employees on safety, wellness, and injury prevention, and most recently, handling COVID contact tracing and reporting. Thank our lab nurses for their dedication during Nurses Week!
