Letter to the Editor - The Millerton News - 5-11-23

As we celebrate Nurses Week (5/6 - 5/12), a national observance designed to recognize the tireless work of all nurses, I want to take some time to thank all my Sharon Hospital nursing colleagues.

In my role as Chief Nursing Officer at Sharon Hospital, I am gratified to work with such dedicated individuals that each care so deeply for our patients. Our nursing staff is the backbone of our team, ensuring that patients receive the care and compassion they need during their times of need and guiding them to health and wellness.

I am proud to lead our Sharon Hospital nursing staff toward success by working collaboratively to create efficient nursing procedures, treatment plans, and further integrate new medical technologies, all to deliver high-quality care to the members of our community that depend on us.

I have seen firsthand our nurses’ commitment to patients and our community each day and especially over the past few years, by navigating the challenges that the healthcare industry has faced and stepping up to meet every hurdle and prioritize our patients, and our community. We are eternally grateful for each of you.

1 am proud to lead this team of dedicated professionals and call Sharon Hospital home. Please join me, Sharon Hospital and Nuvance Health’s leadership team, Board of Directors, and staff in wishing our exceptional nurses a Happy Nurses Week and thanking them for all that they do for our community.

Dawn Woodruff,
MSN, RN

Chief Nursing Officer,
Sharon Hospital
