Warm Thanksgiving Greetings to Our Esteemed Members! 

Dear Maryland Nurses Association Members, 

As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation for each and every one of you.  

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I am reminded of the incredible strength and resilience that defines our nursing community. Your hard work, professionalism, and the empathy you bring to your roles make a significant impact on the lives of those you serve. 

This holiday season, let us take a moment to reflect on the positive difference we make in the lives of our patients and their families. Despite the challenges we face, your steadfast commitment to providing high-quality care is truly commendable. 

As we gather with our loved ones to celebrate Thanksgiving, let us also remember those who may be facing difficult times. Your kindness and compassion extend beyond the hospital walls, and I am proud to lead a group of individuals who exemplify the true spirit of nursing. 

May your Thanksgiving be filled with joy, warmth, and moments of gratitude. Thank you for your hard work, your dedication, and your unwavering commitment to the nursing profession. Wishing you and your loved ones a Happy Thanksgiving! 

Warm regards, 

Dr. Christie Simon-Waterman
