The Stellar Nurse is accepting applications for its next sponsored Introduction to Hospitality learning cohort starting on Monday, October 5, 2026.

The Stellar Nurse initiative began during a difficult time. Countries face a healthcare crisis due to COVID-19. Many nurses quit, overwhelmed by stress and burnout. Now, there's a serious nurse shortage. Those who stayed face unsafe nurse-patient ratios, leading to more burnout. Nurses in these conditions feel unseen and unheard. In these tough times, it's crucial to appreciate the amazing work of nurses. The Stellar Nurses aims to show nurses they are valued by their community and patients. We created a platform to honor nurses globally—a group often unnoticed. This initiative adapts to meet the nursing community's needs. We started with a promise to support the nurses we help. This dialogue led to a learning and knowledge hub. We offer a safe place for mentorship, providing a nurturing environment for nurses. Our platform encourages open talk, letting nurses share ideas and adopt best practices. Our mission is clear—to honor nurses and celebrate their achievements. While we aim to broaden our reach, our main goal—to honor the stellar spirits in nursing—remains our guiding star. The Stellar Nurse initiative is led by: Bill Hurley: Founder of Excellence 24/7, advocates for healthcare improvement. Jennifer Thietz: Nurse advocate and author, highlighting the role of nurses. Angie Gray: Nurse coach and founder of High-Performance Nursing, enhancing professional growth and well-being. Musadhiq Abdulla: Healthcare advocate and digital marketer. These visionaries are committed to supporting and celebrating nurses worldwide. Please visit our website: Thestellarnurse.com Email us: Support@thestellarnurse.comThe
