🚑 “I’m certified in Emergency Nursing and I’m in charge of your care today” 🚨

Join us in congratulating Jess, Madison, and Rachel, who recently earned their Certification in Emergency Nursing and now get to say that to their patients!

These rockstars can handle everything from “I think my kiddo swallowed a Lego” to “There’s something up with my arm after wrestling my pet raccoon” 🦝💥

Why is certification important? Because it shows that our nurses are committed to the highest standards of emergency care – staying current, staying sharp, and staying ready. Certified nurses = better outcomes, safer patients, and a team you absolutely want on your side.

🩺 SIM-ply the Best! 🎭

Huge shoutout to Jill, who recently became the first nurse at UHS to earn her certification in healthcare simulation. 🤯

In today’s healthcare world, simulation isn’t just practicing, it’s preparation. It allows nurses and other healthcare professionals to simulate everything from high pressure emergencies to delicate procedures in a safe and controlled environment, building confidence and improving patient care.

Jill’s certification means she is at the forefront of shaping smarter, safer, and capable healthcare teams. 🧠

She’s pretty SIMpressive, right? Drop a 👏 or 🎉 to congratulate Jill on her achievement!

🌞 Sunshine Award: Hannah’s got us glowing! 🌞

We’re proud to celebrate our August Sunshine Award winner, Hannah. When a patient experienced chest pain during his visit, she didn’t just rise to the occasion, she shined! Calm, professional, and compassionate, she made a tough moment a little easier by suggesting the patient’s wife stay by his side. That simple gesture went a long way in making them both feel safe and supported.

💬 “Throughout my stay, Hannah conveyed both warmth and professionalism,” the patient wrote. “She offered to walk with me in the hallway, checked on me, listened to me, communicated with the nurses, and clearly has her patient’s best interest at heart.”

Thanks, Hannah, for being the kind of person who makes healthcare a little more human – and a lot more sunny 😎

🎃🍁 It's Fall, Y'all. and we're All About Fall...Prevention 🎃🍁

As the leaves drop, we're busy making sure our patients don't! This spooky season, our educators are reminding everyone that safe patient handling isn't just smart, it's essential.

Whether it's using proper lifting techniques, assistive devices or teamwork that's tighter than a mummy wrap, we're committed to keeping our patients safe and upright like a scarecrow.

Because in our world, the only thing falling this time of year should be the temperature! 🍂❄
