We have all met at least one outstanding nurse whose courage, competence and commitment to patients and the nursing profession stands out above all others.  May 5, 2013 marked the 9th annual celebration of Iowa's Great Nurses.  The 2013 honorees gathered at the newly renovated Veteran's Memorial Auditorium in Des Moines with more than 950 family members, friends and colleagues to be recognized for their outstanding careers and achievements.  The address was given by Dr. Jerry Durham of Allen College, an honoree of 2012.
