Nurses: Keeping America Healthy

It's National Nurses Week, and here at the White House we're recognizing the significant contributions that nurses make to keep America healthy. Today we're hosting a special session of Office Hours at 3:30 p.m. EDT with Mary Wakefield, a Registered Nurse and Administrator of the Health Resources and Services Administration, which runs many of the programs that help train and support nurses.

Join the conversation:

  • Ask your questions now and during the live event on Twitter with the hashtag #WHChat

  • If you miss the live session, the full session will be posted on WhiteHouse.gov and Storify.com/WhiteHouse

Check out the different ways the new health care law is investing in our country's nurses.
