Last week marked National Nurse Practitioner Week, an annual recognition of the vital work nurse practitioners perform every day.

To honor their impact, Hardin County Judge/Executive Keith Taul issued a proclamation during last week’s Fiscal Court meeting. In that same spirit of appreciation, Baptist Health Hardin is proud to highlight one of our own.

Baptist Health Hardin recently named APRN Savannah King as Practice Clinician of the Year. Savannah serves patients at Baptist Health Medical Group Cardiology in Elizabethtown, and is known for her skill, compassion and commitment to exceptional care.

Thank you, Savannah, and all the nurse practitioners who dedicate their time and expertise to improving the health of our community.

Leaders, staff, and board members from Baptist Health Hardin and Baptist Health Foundation Hardin came together Thursday for a special check presentation. Beth Mather, who leads the annual 5K with support from her event committee, presented a donation of more than $30,000 to advance cancer care. A portion of the contribution will establish the new Patient Oncology Assistance Fund, offering important support for patients as they navigate their cancer journey.

Baptist Health Hardin and Baptist Health Foundation Hardin are sincerely grateful for the continued support from Tails & TaTas and wish to recognize and thank Beth Mather, the Tails & TaTas committee and sponsors, and to all those who attend or support this worthwhile event each year.
