GI Nurses and Associates Day is March 26, 2008
Gastroenterology nurses and associates are being honored on March 26th during GI Nurses and Associates Day.
These are the wonderful folks who hold our hands while we wait to doze off during our colonoscopies. Who ask, "Any trouble with the prep?" Who hand us the little flowered gown that opens in the back.
Their skill and experience makes a scary procedure easier and much safer, and we appreciate it.
Thanks!
March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month
