As many of our readers may know, the World Health Organization (WHO) named 2020 the official Year of the Nurse and the Midwife!

The team at American Nurse Journal applaud WHO for creating this year-long initiative. Our journal strives to create content aimed to help nurses, nurse practitioners, midwives, and other healthcare providers maximize patient outcomes and enhances their careers.

We at American Nurse are thrilled to enter the Year of the Nurse and Midwife and create even more meaningful content and initiatives for our readers. We would love to hear from you, why the Year of the Nurse and Midwife is important to you, and what you hope to see come out of this year.

Also coinciding with the Year of the Nurse and Midwife, American Nurse is pleased to announce its new name and logo, both of which amplify the impact of nurses. We would love for you to tell us what you think in the comments!

To all our nurses, nurse practitioners, midwives, and all healthcare providers: Here’s to you, and we hope to help you shine throughout the year!
