CNHI Announcement for Nursing Stories: An Open Call to Nurses

The Bjoring Center for Nursing Historical Inquiry wants to ensure that the voice of the nurse is preserved during this historic time. Are you working on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic? Tell us about your experience and the daily challenges you are facing during this crisis.

Keep a record—and send it to us. Forward your journals, blog posts, photos, videos, audio diaries, or any other kind of narrative, to [email protected].

Your perspective will be important for future generations. Please include a statement that you grant permission for this material to be archived at the Eleanor Crowder Bjoring Center for Nursing Historical Inquiry at the University of Virginia.

In this Year of the Nurse and Midwife, there is no better time to record your vital role.
