Abstract:
A commitment to community involvement is a fundamental component of the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Magnet Recognition Program®. It reflects the nursing profession's spirit of service to society, as well as the personal ethos of those who pursue a nursing career. As we enter the season of gratitude and giving, we explore the role volunteerism plays in an organization's Magnet® culture, how it contributes to a greater sense of purpose, and how nurses far and wide make an impact when they give back to their local, national, and global communities.
