A message from Carol Kuplen, RN, MSN, Chief Nursing Officer, St. Luke’s University Health Network
Better Nurses. Best Hospital.
Named 100 Top Hospital – 3 YEARS IN A ROW!
For the third year in a row, St. Luke’s has been named one of the 100 Top Hospitals in the Nation by Truven Health Analytics.™ Truven’s 100 Top Hospitals are proven to provide the highest value to the communities they serve – demonstrating excellence in quality, safety and patient satisfaction.
St. Luke’s is the ONLY hospital in the region to win this prestigious award!
Excellence in health care begins with exceptional nurses.
Across St. Luke’s, our nurses have a critical responsibility to uphold the highest level of quality and ethical standards in their practice to ensure the delivery of superior health care to patients, families and the community. Registered nurses may choose to practice as direct care providers, advanced practitioners, administrators or educators. Regardless of their position, their professional commitment is evident in all aspects of care - patient safety, care coordination, patient/family engagement, education, patient outcomes and quality of care. St. Luke’s nurses are highly trusted as a result; earning a well-deserved reputation for providing the highest level of quality and ethical care to our patients.
In recognition of National Nurses Week 2017 and the week’s theme of “Nursing: the Balance of Mind, Body, and Spirit” we celebrate and thank all of our outstanding nursing professionals throughout St. Luke’s Network for their commitment to providing the best care to every patient, every single day.
We take this opportunity to recognize our Nursing Excellence Award winners. These fine individuals are shining examples of St. Luke’s nurses at their best. They are selected for their outstanding nursing care, leadership and community contributions. It is a privilege to practice with such outstanding individuals who represent the “best” of the nursing profession.
