St Agatha Medal with Nurse Insignia Back

Patron Saint of Nurses, Breast Cancer, Sterility, and Earthquakes

Certain Catholic saints are associated with certain life situations. These patron saints intercede to God for us. We can take our special needs to them and know they will listen to our prayers, and pray to God with us.
Saint Agatha is considered one of the patrons of nurses. A patron saint medal not only helps us focus on God, it calls for the prayers from our patron saint and it recognizes the need for this assistance. In wearing a Saint Agatha medal, nurses seek her assistance and prayers throughout their work, helping them to become more caring, thoughtful, and compassionate nurses.

A great gift idea for someone graduating from nursing school!
