MEDINA – Orleans Community Health is celebrating Nurses Week May 5-9 with a full schedule of special events and honors.
“Orleans Community Health is proud to honor the dedication, compassion and commitment of its nursing staff during National Nurses Week 2025,” said Scott Robinson, director of Marketing, Communication and Outreach. “This special week recognizes the vital role nurses play in patient care and community, and Orleans Community Health is marking the occasion with a series of celebrations, tributes and recognitions.”
Throughout the week, Orleans Community Health will be sharing spotlights of both current and past members of its nursing teams, highlighting the stories and impact of these exceptional professionals across decades of care, Robinson said.
Celebratory events will include a sweet start to the week on Monday with cake and cupcakes available for all nursing staff; a special gift to nurses on Wednesday in appreciation of their dedication and service; and the annual brunch on Friday, a cherished tradition which brings together current and former members of the nursing team for a time of connection, gratitude and celebration.
A highlight of Friday’s brunch will be the announcement of this DAISY Award recipient, a prestigious honor given to a nurse who exemplifies extraordinary clinical skill and compassionate care.
“Nurses are the heart of everything we do,” said Kim Gray, chief nursing officer at Orleans Community Health. “They bring strength, compassion and skill to every patient interaction. Nurses Week is a time for us to pause, reflect and express our deep gratitude to these incredible individuals who make such a profound difference every day.”
Orleans Community Health invites the community to join in recognizing and thanking the nurses who serve with excellence, resilience and heart.
