At American Medical ID we always try to be aware of what is going on in the news and more importantly, we try to recognize important events and holidays. Well, the second week in November was quite a busy one full with many important happenings and events!
First and foremost we would like to formally recognize Veterans Day and extend our most sincere appreciation to all of the Veterans of our nation. For information, please visit the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs site at: www.va.gov.
Also, here is a great link to a National Geographic article that explains what Veterans Day is, who it is for and why it is always November 11th. There are some great pictures of Arlington National Cemetery. Click here: http://is.gd/4Tuc0
Did you know this week was also National Nurse Practitioner Week? We would also like to thank all the Nurse Practitioners that are the primary care providers of choice for many patients and many of our customers.

Finally, we would like to remind everyone that this Saturday, November 14th is World Diabetes Day. According to www.WorldDiabetesDay.org, the purpose of this campaign is to promote awareness of diabetes and to help all those responsible for diabetes care to understand this condition.
As you can see, several major events occurred this week. Please take a moment to recognize the importance of all three.
