Artwork and lettering

Bold vintage block letters spell out the headline across the upper chest, drawing attention immediately with weathered red, orange, cream, teal, and blue tones. Right in the middle of the layout, a red stethoscope cleverly bends into the letter U around a solid heart, extending its orange tubing across the neighboring letters. Below the headline, a medical pulse line runs horizontally between two red hearts, framing a white healthcare cross right at the center. The lower text delivers the humorous punchline in crisp lettering, grounding the entire graphic in the nursing trade. Together, the distressed retro typography and classic clinical symbols create a vibrant celebration of a long medical career.
