In times of uncertainty, nursing calls us back to who we are. Our values of compassion, courage, and leadership guide us not only in our work, but in how we show up for one another and for our communities.

In Overcoming: Stories of Leadership, Resilience, and Action, former ANA President, Karen Daley, reveals that leadership often emerges in the most challenging moments, and that ordinary nurses are capable of extraordinary impact.

As we process recent events and grieve the loss of fellow nurse Alex Pretti, we draw strength from the leaders and colleagues who remind us why this profession matters so deeply.

💉 Science. Clarity. Public Health Leadership.

The Massachusetts Department of Public Health has issued updated guidance recommending that clinicians use the American Academy of Pediatrics Recommended Child and Adolescent Immunization Schedule as the primary reference for pediatric vaccinations in Massachusetts.

This decision reflects a strong, ongoing commitment to evidence-based immunization practices that protect children, families, and communities. The AAP schedule is developed by pediatric experts and regularly updated to reflect the best available science—providing clear, consistent guidance clinicians can trust.

Thank you to our Massachusetts public health leaders who continue to follow the science, prioritize vaccine confidence, and support clinicians with transparent, evidence-driven guidance—especially at a time when misinformation threatens public health nationwide.
