Happy Mary Seacole Day--the Mother of Social Justice Nursing
Posted by Shum Preston on May 14, 2008 - 1:59pm
Today, May 14th, is the 119th anniversary of the passing away of Mary Seacole, the Mother of Social Justice nursing.
RNs now celebrate Mary Seacole Day as part of National Nurses Week—and as the day we honor the social justice aspect of the work of nurses. Mary Seacole remains an important inspiration for the national nurses movement being built by CNA/NNOC (California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee), which focuses on improving patient care and safety in hospitals and on bringing this country the guaranteed, single-payer health care that our patients deserve.
