Monday, May 6 through Sunday, May 12 is designated as National Nurses Week, and we want to recognize the dozens of nurses who work for the Deschutes County Health Services Department.

From reproductive health, immunizations, and support for new moms and babies, to communicable disease investigation, behavioral health, outreach and field work, and community partner training, County nurses play a vital role in the health and well-being of our community.

We invite you to watch this video to hear some of our nurses explain what they do and why they do it. You can also learn more about Deschutes County Health Services at https://www.deschutes.org/health.
