National Hospital Week’s history dates back to 1921, evolving from a single day to an entire week of celebration in 1953. Its timing in May aligns with Florence Nightingale’s birthday, honoring her contributions to modern nursing and hospital care. Today, National Hospital Week is one of the nation’s largest healthcare celebrations, highlighting hospitals’ critical role in our lives and expressing gratitude for healthcare workers’ dedication.
