People across Oklahoma City looking to the sky the night of May 6 will see a powerful tribute: the Skydance Bridge glowing red in celebration of The Power of Nurses™ during National Nurses Week, May 6–12.
The American Nurses Association is illuminating more than 100 buildings and landmarks across the country as part of its #NursesLightUpTheSky initiative—honoring the 5 million+ registered nurses whose contributions power health and healing in every community.
“Nurses are essential to the health of our families and communities-and this week, we honor the impact they make across every corner of Oklahoma and the nation,” said Jane Nelson, CAE, CEO of Oklahoma Nurses Association. “Lighting up our skyline is just one way we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible work nurses do every single day.”
