Patient TestimonialSandi was one of our nurses during the delivery of my first child in August 2022. I was really disappointed to not have my mom and husband there for my son’s delivery, due to COVID protocols, but Sandi stepped in as a mother figure. Sandi made a really hard labor, a scary delivery, and a difficult couple of days so much better just by showing how much she cared about me. I could not be more grateful. She will forever be part of our family. — Cait Brittain |  Thankful patient celebrates her DAISY nurse via Zoom |
Magnet Champion Council and Central Partnership Council
My name is Briana Squiers and I am the current chair of the Magnet Champion Council Committee. I am so excited to have the opportunity to work with this group to create change throughout our hospitals and continue work to improve patient outcomes. It has been amazing working on an energized team with support from staff throughout the hospital to create goals aligned with Magnet! | Hi, I'm Anne, your CPC chair for FY 2022-2023. As a council, we are working to increase visibility of shared governance work, by utilizing the new intranet, Engage, as well as increasing nurse autonomy. We also act as a way to share projects that units are working on to increase visibility within the organization. I hope you enjoy reading about some of these projects in our Nursing Annual Report! |
