JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (April 9, 2019) – Ensign Sandy Link, a nurse at Naval Hospital Jacksonville’s Multi-Service Unit, flushes a patient’s intravenous tubing. Link, a native of Cocoa Beach, Florida, says, “I'm from a military family, so I developed a passion for helping and caring for those who serve. Navy nursing allows me to gain experiences that I wouldn't have as a nurse in the private sector.” We celebrate National Nurses Week, May 6-12. Since the American Revolution, military nurses have served their country by playing central, heroic roles in military medicine. Nurses provide unique contributions during peacetime and conflict and serve in roles that go beyond the hospital and clinic. They can be found in research labs and classrooms or analyzing informatics. Nurses are our everyday superheroes! (U.S. Navy photo by Jacob Sippel, Naval Hospital Jacksonville/Released).
