Welcome to PRESBYWOOD!

Tonya Giles, Tawanna Johnson, Tessa Covert, Sheila Thompson, and Jeremy Taylor

On Thursday, May 10, Nurse Managers held an event to honor all of PPMC’s nursing stars. Our nursing stars were welcomed to PRESBYWOOD on a red carpet, were photographed in our PRESBYWOOD Photo Studio and were then invited to spend a relaxing evening with refreshments and dancing to tunes played by our very own DJ. Nurse managers paid homage to all of the nursing stars as servant leaders.
