Amy Pettit had a lot of good news to share during a recent Schneck Medical Center board of trustees meeting.
First, the vice president of patient care services and chief nursing officer said the Seymour hospital is going through the Magnet recertification process.
The Magnet Recognition Program designates organizations worldwide where nursing leaders successfully align their nursing strategic goals to improve the organization’s patient outcomes, according to nursingworld.org.
That provides a roadmap to nursing excellence, which benefits the whole of an organization, the website states. For nurses, the recognition means education and development through every career stage, which leads to greater autonomy at the bedside. For patients, it means the very best care delivered by nurses who are supported to be the very best they can be.
