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.
