as they care for patients, families and communities.<br />
Efforts of individual nurses however deserve special<br />
recognition by colleagues, employers, patients,<br />
families and friends. <strong>The</strong>re are many reasons<br />
to Honor a <strong>Nurse</strong> such as: to thank a mentor, to<br />
