Nurse Honor Guard of West Alabama

02/03/2026

Nurses Day at the Capitol — Montgomery, AL
On Tuesday, February 3, 2026, nurses from across Alabama gathered at the Alabama State Capitol in Montgomery (Gordon Persons Building) for Nurses Day at the Capitol — an advocacy and recognition event hosted by the Alabama State Nurses Association. This event brought together frontline caregivers, nurse leaders, educators, and students to advocate for nursing priorities, public health, and supportive healthcare policy with state legislators and policymakers.⁣

The Nurse Honor Guard’s mission is to provide respectful, ceremonial acknowledgment of nurses’ contributions — similar in spirit to military-style honors — and to celebrate the profound role nurses play in patient care and healthcare systems. Their presence and support at recognition events like Nurses Day highlights both advocacy and appreciation for the profession. ⁣

Big thanks to Donna Wilson Stadmire, Pat Green, and C Dewayne Henderson Jr. for representing the Nurse Honor Guard of West Alabama and Amanda Simmons our state coordinator!!!
