THE POWER OF NURSES

The Z Club Health & Wellness Committee celebrated the Power of Nurses, the 2026 Nurses Week theme, on Wednesday, May 6.  Committee Members presented flowers to each of the 10 Nursing Stations at Beebe Hospital to acknowledge the hard work and dedication each of these individuals display every day.  The nurses told us they look forward to this annual recognition and truly appreciate the flowers and the giant card signed by members.
