Missing a limb, but not a heart!
April has been declared National Limb Loss Awareness Month in
the United States.
In the spirit of this campaign, it’s fitting that we celebrate some of
our nursing colleagues who, despite the absence of a limb or
extremity, are valuable members of our profession.

Grant, RN, Carolyn McKinzie, LPN and Susan Fleming, RN.
