- National Nurses Month 2022 EventsNational Nurses Week (May 6-12) begins each year on May 6, and ends on May 12, Florence Nightingale’s birthday and International Nurses Day. Recently, the commemoration has been extended to encompass the entire month of May and is intended to promote the fundamental value of nursing and the importance of an empowered, innovative, and diverse workforce in improving healthcare for everyone.
Johnson & Johnson is honoring and recognizing nurses throughout National Nurses Month with several initiatives and programs – from announcing the winners of the latest Johnson & Johnson Nurses Innovate Quickfire Challenge on May 10th and launching a new NurseHack4Health Pitch-a-thon with up to $250,000 in funding for nurse-led workplace wellness ideas, to special segments on NBC’s TODAY show and new episodes of the SEE YOU NOW podcast. We are excited to celebrate and recognize nurses as natural innovators with in-demand skills and valuable experience.
