Nurseswecare

Over the past year, NursesWeCare has had the privilege of supporting community health through wellness initiatives and occupational health services.

We are grateful to have provided wellness support to more than 200 individuals and conducted over 300 respirator fit tests to promote workplace safety and infection prevention, and respiratory protection for healthcare professionals and healthcare students.

NursesWeCare remains committed to advancing occupational health education, respiratory protection, and community wellness in the years ahead.

NursesWeCare was founded in 2022 and will proudly celebrate its 4th birthday this year on April 5, 2026. The week of April 5-11, 2026 we also celebrate Occupational Health Nurse Week. Now what does an occupational health nurse do?
There are many different ways that workers’ health can be impacted by the workplace; occupational health nurses seek to provide care and health promotion programs to support workers in improving their health (World Health Organization, 2026). They also work to prevent injuries and illnesses from occurring, as well as helping to manage workplace health conditions with the other members of the occupational health team.
