Nine Coronary Care Nurses Earn Advanced Certifications

November 21, 2018

The Coronary Care Unit has a lot to be proud of this year! We have had eight nurses achieved their CCRN and one nurse who also obtained her CMC certification within the past 6 months. Adding these most recent certified nurses makes up more than 50% of our staff who have advanced certifications! As a unit, we would like to individually recognize and thank our staff for their overall hard work and commitment to critical care nursing.

The newly 2018 certified CCRNs are: Andraya Zelle, Stephanie Bosse, Lena Howell, Sally Turner, Marley Brennan, JeanMarie Pate, Elizabeth Hufham, and Judy Collins and 2018 CMC certified CCRN, Jess Thompson.
