As we observe National Nurses Week, I rise to honor our medical professionals on Guam and the incredible work they do for our island community. Nurses are an integral part of our healthcare system, providing patients with compassionate care and support. Shown next to me are some of Guam's nurses tending to the well-being of our island residents. As the backbone of our healthcare system, nurses work tirelessly around the clock to ensure everyone receives the best possible treatment. Oftentimes, they sacrifice their own well-being and comfort to provide excellent care to their patients. This can mean working long hours, dealing with difficult individuals, or managing stressful situations. Not to forget, on Guam and everywhere else, nurses were at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19, putting their own lives at risk to save others. Today and every day, we honor our nurses for their hard work and dedication. Happy National Nurses Week. Celebrating Guam Chamber of Commerce's 99th Anniversary
