In honor of National Nurses Week, Whidbey General Hospital is accepting letters of nomination for “Outstanding Nurse” recognition.

The recognition is open to all nurses working within the Whidbey Island community. Winners will receive a copy of the nomination letter and a certificate of appreciation for their dedication and commitment to making a caring difference in people’s lives.
