A Thank You Letter to Nurses from Our Chief Nursing Officers

2020: what a year! In a short amount of time, the world around us changed - our neighborhoods, our children’s schools, spaces we gathered in and even the places we work and call home. Life with COVID-19 sparked fear, frustration and anxiety all around. For the medical community, we had to rethink our approaches and focus our energy on defeating the pandemic and all the challenges associated with it. Nothing was more important than ensuring the health and safety of our patients, the community and our workforce.

People looked to health care organizations to provide exceptional and compassionate care, and you went above and beyond. For that, we Thank You! Nurses were on the front lines day in and day out, often times working around the clock and away from your families.  From advocating for your patients, to holding their hands and helping them FaceTime with loved ones, you were there through it all.  As we begin to see a light at the end of the tunnel, we know you will continue to care for your patients the way you always have, going above and beyond, because it is what we nurses do.  Thank you again for all of your hard work and dedication to patients and our community.
