Honoring Our Nurses During National Nurses Week 2023
Nurses play a vital role in our healthcare system, including Vitalant’s blood collection processes. These team members ensure the safety and care of our donors and, ultimately, patients in need.
National Nurses Week from May 6-12 celebrates those continuing to live the legacy of Florence Nightingale, the mother of modern nursing whose sanitary care efforts reduced Crimean War death rates from 42% to 2%.
Celebrating Medical Laboratory Professionals Week
Every year during the last week of April, we celebrate Medical Laboratory Professionals Week (MLPW) where we recognize and appreciate the hard work and dedication of medical laboratory professionals who play critical roles at Vitalant and in the healthcare system. With multiple types of laboratories, Vitalant’s medical laboratory professionals meet numerous needs for patients and the medical communities we serve.
