For this, our inaugural nod to Excellence in Nursing, we partnered with the DAISY Foundation and the New Jersey State Nurses Association. Each of these organizations recognizes the integral and challenging role nurses play in healthcare and pays tribute to the men and women who serve on the front line of this ever-evolving profession. From providing routine in-patient care to stepping up at the risk of their own safety to confront the Covid-19 pandemic, New Jersey’s nurses contribute expertise, compassion and support at every level of the medical landscape.
