🎓 Dream Achieved! 🎓

Please join us in congratulating Ruth Vasquez, DNP, FNP, of the Center for Surgical Services, on earning her Doctor of Nursing Practice from Frontier Nursing University!

Not only did Ruth complete the rigorous 18-month program while caring for patients and raising two daughters, but she’s also a first-generation Latina college graduate and an inspiring role model for her family, patients, and colleagues.

“I want my daughters to know that even as a mom, a nurse, and a busy professional, you can still chase your goals—and catch them.” 💙

Gallstones can cause pain, blockages, and even infection. When symptoms strike, minimally invasive surgery may be the best solution.

👏 Kudos to Bryan Jenkins, Director of Springside! 👏

Bryan recently went above and beyond to coordinate care for a resident who needed rehabilitation after surgery. Thanks to his thoughtful planning and teamwork with The Manor, the resident’s transition was seamless—easing the burden on her and her family and ensuring a smooth return home to Springside.

Bryan, your dedication is a true example of what being a connected healthcare system is all about. Thank you for living the We Care mantra every day! 💙
