Nursing
During
polio epidemics, nurses played a vital role in patient care and found
countless ways to comfort young children with the disease.
As March
of Dimes researchers expanded knowledge of birth defects, we armed
nurses with education in prenatal care. Today we offer a wide range of
nursing modules to help nurses translate the latest research into the
care they provide.
As the crisis of premature birth grew, the March of Dimes
supported professional development for nurses caring for critically ill
babies in newborn intensive care units. Babies’ lives depend on the
quality of care that these highly skilled nurses can give them.
One of
the ways the March of Dimes recognizes the outstanding work of nurses is
through our Nurse of the Year awards. We also award several
scholarships annually to nurses enrolled in graduate programs in
maternal-child health.
