Posted: June 29th, 2010 | By Jennifer Fink, RN, BSN | no comments

Do you know a nurse who has gone above and beyond the call of duty? Nominate her for a Cherokee Inspired Comfort Award.

Established in 2003, the Cherokee Inspired Comfort Awards recognize nurses who demonstrate exceptional service, sacrifice or innovation. Previous winners include a nurse who mobilizes community services to help the elderly, a nurse practitioner who founded a free medical clinic, and a LPN who has spent four decades helping moms and babies.

Winners receive an Inspired Comfort trophy, a work wardrobe of Cherokee uniforms and shoes, a 14K gold-plated pin and a one-year subscription to Scrubs magazine. Grand prize winners also win a Caribbean cruise for two.

To nominate, a friend, family member or co-worker, visit http://inspiredcomfort.com/. You’ll be asked to describe the nominee’s outstanding service in 750 words or less. If you have trouble getting started, review the nomination tips.

You’ll receive an award just for nominating a deserving healthcare provider! Nomination awards include a free issue of Scrubs magazine or a golden Cherokee Inspired Comfort Award pin. Hurry, though: nominations will only be accepted through 11:59 pm Pacific Time June 30, 2010.

Is nursing considered a career or a trade? I am not just a skilled craftsman, I am an educated professional.

Student nurses are frazzled and panicking right now. You’ve been there. Got any advice for us?

Male nurses are almost not existent in the clinics. Other than the MDs, I am the only guy on the floor.

I love hearing about how the nurse practitioner is the “next best thing” in the medical profession. Is it?
