Designates the week of May 11–17, 2025 as National Hospital Week and officially recognizes the important role hospitals play in U.S. health care. The resolution recounts the origin of National Hospital Day (dating to 1921 and linked to Florence Nightingale’s birthday, May 12), cites recent national hospital statistics, and encourages Americans to observe the week with ceremonies, activities, and programs that honor hospitals and their staff.
This is a symbolic, nonbinding resolution that does not change law, create programs, or provide funding; it affirms appreciation for clinical and nonclinical hospital workers and highlights hospitals’ service to urban and rural communities.
Submitted in the Senate, considered, and agreed to without amendment and with a preamble by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S2934; text: CR S2932)
