Thank You for Shining Bright During WOC Nurse Week 2025! WOC Nurse Week 2025 (April 13–19) may have come and gone, but the light you bring to healthcare shines all year long. The Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nurses Society™ (WOCN®) extends our deepest gratitude to each and every WOC nurse for your compassion, expertise, and unwavering dedication.

Like the sun that rises each day, you continue to bring hope, comfort, and healing to those who need it most. Your clinical excellence, resilient spirit, and heartfelt care brighten the lives of patients, families, and communities across every care setting.

From healing wounds and managing ostomies to supporting continence care, your work restores dignity and inspires strength. You’re not just caregivers—you’re advocates, educators, leaders, and innovators who illuminate the future of healthcare.

While WOC Nurse Week gave us a special moment to honor your contributions, our appreciation extends far beyond one week. We hope you took time to celebrate and reflect on the incredible difference you make every day by:

• Displaying your WOC Nurse Week poster with pride.
• Wearing your WOC Nurse pin to showcase your dedication.
• Celebrating with your fellow WOC nurses and sharing appreciation.
• Entering the online photo contest for a chance to win exclusive prizes!
• Tuning into a special WOC Nurse Week webinar to earn free continuing education.
• Reflecting on the countless ways to make a different in patients’ lives.
