Make Your Nurse a Star

Honor your favorite nurse in time for Nurses Week, May 6-12


Recognize a nurse or nurses by making them a "star" and support continuing education programs for nurses at Inova. Your Nursing Stars can include an individual nurse, all the nurses on a particular patient care unit at an Inova hospital or facility, or any nurse anywhere. It's up to you!

You can honor and/or memorialize nurses or former nurses you know, including family members and friends. The more Nursing Stars you name, the more you help all Inova Health System nurses expand their knowledge and skills.

Nursing Stars receive special recognition and a special star-shaped engraved lapel pin.

  • $1,000 for an entire patient care unit of nurses
