St. Catherine of Siena is the patron saint of nurses. Nurses are putting their health and lives on the line everyday tending to our sick, injured, and dying. They need our prayers more than ever. This necklace comes in lengths of 18in and 24in - 24in is a good length to tuck under scrubs to keep the necklace out of the way and within dress guidelines. It contains a silver colored caduceus charm, a clear glass bead, and a Saint Catherine medal, made in Italy with the words "PRAY FOR US" on the back. In addition to being the patron saint of nurses, St. Catherine is the patron saint against fire, illness and miscarriage.
