Action Products, Inc. announces that at its booth (#2023) at the 58th annual AORN Congress, it will be turning celestial in celebration of its Angel series product launch. To kick off the event and in celebration of Nurse Angels worldwide, Action is hosting a contest in search of the ultimate Nurse Angel. Action has created an online social community where nurses are invited to nominate their own Nurse Angel by sharing their personal stories of exceptional nurses or nursing experiences. All nominations should be submitted on the Action Products blog at: http://blog.actionproducts.com/. Everyone is encouraged to share, read, comment and vote for their personal favorite. The Action Nurse Angel honoree will be announced on May 13 during National Nurses Week.
We truly think the AORN is an ideal place to kick off the Angel line and our social network and to do so in a way that recognizes and celebrates the dedication and perseverance of nurses the world over is icing on the cake! says Janet Kaplan, marketing manager for Action Products, Inc.s medical products group.
While visiting Actions booth, nurses will receive a complimentary Nurse Angel keepsake pin in honor of the occasion, as well as a free educational positioning DVD.
