Nurse Appreciation week-$25 Starbucks Gift Card

At a time when customer service is being applauded with online platforms like Twitter, Yelp or Facebook, the appreciation we show towards people who do great work that impacts our lives should go back to square one, shouldn't it?

HealthCareerWeb.com is trying to bring it back to where appreciation matters. With health and family on the top of the minds of many Americans these days, we need to show gratitude to those that keep us healthy and balanced. This created the initiative for "We Appreciate Nurses A Latte," a new Facebook campaign on HCW.
The campaign corresponds with National Nurses Week, which goes down May 6th through 12th. The week recognizes the 3.1 million nurses across America that work in our hospitals, emergency rooms, schools, nursing homes and all the other duties and responsibilities that come with making sure America stays healthy.

To celebrate, HealthCareerWeb.com wants to know why you chose to enter the nursing profession. To show our appreciation, we will choose one nurse who shares their story everyday on May 6th, 7th, 10th, 11th and 12th, to enjoy a latte on us (in the form of a $25 Starbucks gift card)!
All you need to do is head on over to the HCW Facebook page, "like" the page and give us a few words on why you made the decision to join the fastest growing career field in the country.
Maybe it was a relative that was saved by a nurse when you were young, maybe a family member is in the healthcare field, or maybe you just want to feel like your job is making a difference in the lives of others.

No matter the reason - We Want To Hear From You!

If you know a nurse, send them over! Show them your appreciation and maybe they'll get a latte (or 2 or 3) out of the experience. Some may even become re-engaged after reading the stories of others.
See you on Facebook. I can't wait to read the stories that inspired you.
