PEDIATRIC NURSES WEEK

This October 5-9, 2026, we are coming together to celebrate YOU during Pediatric Nurses Week! The week's mission is to promote pediatric nursing, the practice of nurses dedicated to promoting the optimal health of children and providing excellence in nursing care of children and their families. This week calls attention to the critical work that pediatric nurses provide to improve healthcare delivery. It is a time to reflect on pediatric nurses' contributions to patients, families, and communities.
