AONL National Nurses Week, May 6-12
Theme: Leadership in Every Moment
Nurses are the heart of health care — leading with compassion, courage and commitment in every moment that matters. This Nurses Week, AONL celebrates the impact of nurse leaders with our 2026 theme: Leadership in Every Moment.
From guiding teams through complex challenges to advocating for patients and shaping the future of care, nurse leaders make critical decisions and meaningful connections every day. Their leadership shows up in big milestones and quiet moments alike — supporting colleagues, improving systems and ensuring the highest quality of care for the communities they serve.
Join us May 6–12 as we celebrate nurse leaders who lead with purpose and inspire progress across health care. Through stories, spotlights and special programming, we’ll honor the many ways leadership shows up in every shift, every interaction and every moment.
