ABC's GENERAL HOSPITAL Nurses Ball Returns Wednesday, May 16

"General Hospital"'s annual Nurses Ball, this year sponsored by Olay, returns on WEDNESDAY, MAY 16, and airs through MONDAY MAY 21. Founded in 1994 by Port Charles resident Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), the Nurses Ball is one of fictional Port Charles' most glamorous charity events, dedicated to HIV/AIDS awareness and research. This year, celebrity guest appearances include "The Chew"'s Carla Hall and "The Bachelor"'s Nick Viall. In her debut performance, Hall takes on an infamous role decades in the making; while Viall joins Aurora media maven Nina Clay (Michelle Stafford) on the red carpet, as they welcome viewers into what promises to be a memorable night. From Sam McCall's (Kelly Monaco) stunning arrival to Sonny Corinthos' (Maurice Benard) unwavering support and Jason Morgan's (Steve Burton) tireless search for answers, as well as never-before-seen musical performances and a surprise proposal, the Nurses Ball promises to be this year's can't-miss event.
