What is Nurses of Note?

PerfectServe’s Nurses of Note awards program, established in 2021, celebrates nurses who demonstrate exceptional dedication and devotion to their field. Initially, it recognized nurses who provided outstanding care during the COVID-19 pandemic. The program has grown since then, but its core mission remains unchanged: spotlighting nurses who go above and beyond the call of duty to serve their patients, colleagues, and communities. Each year, hundreds of nominations shed light on nurses’ remarkable contributions that involve everything from innovations in patient care to education and quality improvement efforts. Over 500 outstanding nurses have been honored since the inception of the program, and we’re committed to recognizing many more in the future. Nurses of Note reminds us time and again why nursing is considered the world’s noblest profession!

“It’s important to recognize nurses because it takes a special person to be a nurse, no matter what specialty they are in. Each day we go to work and care for others, some for long hours, and then wake up to do it again. We empty our tanks and ask for nothing in return, to wake up and do it again the next day. We love it and wouldn’t trade it for the world!”
