According to the American Nurses Association, the demand for nursing services will be greater than ever because of the aging of the American population, the continuing expansion of life-sustaining technologies, and the explosive growth of home health care services. The cost-effective, safe and high-quality health care services provided by nursing professionals will be an increasingly important component of the U.S. health care delivery system in the future.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about HSHS St. Anthony\u2019s Memorial Hospital, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stanthonyshospital.org\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/www.stanthonyshospital.org&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1747093376246000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1rA9R6XKLKFXrcIeHsZZ69\">stanthonyshospital.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Effingham Mayor Mike Schutzbach (standing center) recently signed a proclamation designating May 6-12, 2025 as Nurses Week, to honor local nurses and the indispensable part they play in the health [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":9411,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9410","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
