The National Nurses Week was first celebrated in October 1954, when there were 100 years of Nightingale mission in the Crimea. In 1982, for the first time, this date was introduced as the main day of the celebration of the Nurses Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Do People Do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1953, Dorothy Sutherland, who was an employee of the US Department of Health, invited the president to proclaim Nurses Day.
