Loved seeing Kate Judge being inducted as an American Academy of Nursing Honorary Fellow. Kate has dedicated the last few years to philanthropy aimed at creating vital resources and support for nurses. Her unwavering commitment to enhancing the professional lives of nurses and advocating for their needs is so deserving of this recognition. The recognition is a testament to her remarkable contributions to the nursing profession and her dedication to supporting those who care for others. Congratulations, Kate!!! So happy to be there to witness this and be your loudest cheerleader in the audience.
