One of the hallmarks of Providence Mission Hospital is our exceptional nursing team. Our dedicated and compassionate nurses touch so many lives, so profoundly, each and every day. From the moment our patients enter the hospital until they are ready to leave, our nurses play an incredibly important role in the way our patients experience health care.

It is always an honor to formally celebrate our nurses during National Nurses’ Week, which begins on May 6 and concludes on May 12 – the birthday of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing.

I often receive notes and letters from grateful patients and their families, and one of the things that our patients almost always mention is the compassion, kindness and dedication of our nurses. It is truly inspiring to watch them devote their heart and soul to caring for our patients and their loved ones.

Please join me in thanking our nurses for their commitment and dedication!
