Celebrating Black History in Nursing

It’s February and it’s a time to reflect on the accomplishments and contributions of African Americans from the past and present. I want to celebrate those nurses who came before me and paved the way! To think of the barriers that they had to face and overcome is overwhelming! I am so grateful that they’ve made it possible for me to live my dream as a nurse today!

Please enjoy the Black History nursing facts that I have provided below. I hope that you learn something new and take something positive from it! Happy Black History Month!

    These facts are great to know. I feel we lack the cultural knowledge of our contributions to this country. Some facts are not prominently addressed during black history month, or at any other time of the year. This was very interesting and informative.
