This year for National Nurse Practitioner Week, the American Association of Nurse Practitioners recognizes the role NPs play at the heart of health care, emphasizing their position in our communities as trusted providers who increase patient access to primary care services. We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Our NPs at The Little Clinic play a vital role in community health, and we’re incredibly lucky to have them on our team! Thank you to our NPs for all they do every day to change the way healthcare is delivered in America. Happy #NPWeek!

Today, we recognize and honor the brave service members whose courage, sacrifice and dedication to our country inspire us all. At Kroger Health, we’re proud to support our veteran community and to celebrate their incredible contributions. Thank you to our veterans for your service!
