According to former president of the American Nurses Association, Barbara Blakeney, MS, RN, “unlike workers in many other professions, nurses are more vulnerable to fatigue caused by the common practices of short staffing and forced overtime as well as to injuries sustained as the result of improper patient lifting and handling techniques.” Due to these unique challenges of this most important healthcare profession, nurse appreciation programs can be very helpful in protecting the health, welfare and well-being of working nurses in addition to making nursing at your hospital a more attractive profession to potential newcomers and improving the quality of care provided to your patients.
