Employees Awarded Art of Nursing Honors
The Art of Nursing Program recognizes nursing staff throughout the GBMC Healthcare System who exemplify and embody the fundamental elements of the art of nursing in seven categories: diversity in nursing, clinical assistant support award, nurse clinician of the year, nursing evidence-based practice award, Mrs. H. Norman Baetjer, Jr. nursing graduate of the year, patient-and-family-centered care award, and nurse leader award.
2022 Art of Nursing Winner
Congratulations to Gilchrist’s 2022 Art of Nursing Awards finalists and congratulations to Michael Kuiper for winning the Diversity in Nursing Award! Special congratulations to Michael Kuiper, MSN, RN, CHPN, AHN-BC, for winning the 2022 Diversity in Nursing Award, and congratulations to the Gilchrist 2022 Art of Nursing Awards finalists who were among the top three in their category! This year, we had four finalists, in four different categories. Each nomination is read and carefully considered, and every year it becomes more difficult to choose the winners. This reaffirms how fortunate we are to have such an amazing team of nurses and nursing staff.
