As we wind down Nurses Week, we are honored to be surrounded by some of the finest, most dedicated nurses in our community. We see the compassion, professionalism and caring nature of our nurses every day. We are humbled by their strength and awed by their dedication to serving those who are most vulnerable, ensuring dignity and providing quality care. And many of them are either the lifeline to our resident's family or have become their family. That's why it is so important to let them know that they are valued, appreciated and seen. ❤
St. Camillus is thrilled to highlight one of our own outstanding team members, Michele Erwin, RN, Director of Nursing. She was featured in this month's SALUTE TO NURSES issue of the Eagle Newspapers. We are proud to have her leading our team!
