Mayor Bowser's 27th Annual Senior Holiday Celebration was more than dancing and fun, it was about health and awareness too! Thanks to the DC Stroke Collaborative, guests learned lifesaving information on stroke prevention. Our Stroke Navigator, Maddie Monsour, BSN, RN, provided free blood pressure screenings and shared tips on recognizing stroke symptoms using the BE FAST acronym. It was a perfect blend of holiday cheer and health education!

Today we’re celebrating our most recent recipient, Jennifer Sella, RN, for her quick thinking and life-saving action. During her bedside shift report, Jennifer noticed a patient in severe respiratory distress. She immediately escalated to the Clinical Supervisor and activated a Rapid Response. Thanks to her swift action, the patient was transferred to the Clinical Supervisor and intubated without delay, preventing a potential catastrophic event.

Jennifer’s dedication and vigilance exemplify what it means to be GW Proud. Thank you for going above and beyond for patient safety!
