ICYMI yesterday on our socials: "Today on Certified Nurses Day, we celebrate the expertise, dedication, and impact of our certified nurses every single day. 💚 Our Chief Nurse Executive, Frankye Myers, shares why certification matters—not just for professional growth, but for better patient outcomes, stronger teams, and a culture of excellence. Here at Riverside, we remain committed to investing in our nurses, supporting certification, and continuously raising the bar in healthcare. Join us in recognizing the incredible work of our certified nurses and the difference they make."

Riverside Celebrates Nurses Week! Our Chief Nurse Executive, Frankye Myers, says, "I want to take a moment to express heartfelt gratitude — as a fellow nurse who understands the commitment, heart and purpose behind everything our nurses do. "This year’s theme from the American Organization for Nursing Leadership is Care. Lead. Inspire. — Repeat. "It beautifully reflects the spirit of nursing, but also the power of partnership that exists across our health system. While we take this week to spotlight the remarkable work of our nurses, this celebration is also about the teams, departments and individuals who stand alongside them — supporting, collaborating and advancing care for every person who comes through our doors." Happy Nurses Week!
