Addison Gilbert Hospital, Lahey Health

Team Nomination: RNs and Nursing Assistants at the Senior Adult Unit

Addison Gilbert Hospital, Lahey Health

At the Senior Adult Unit at Addison Gilbert Hospital, the RNs and their assistants care for our most vulnerable older adults. Acute Geriatric Nursing requires knowledge of Evidenced Based Nursing Practice and a heart that understands the complexity of both the medical and emotional needs of elders and their families. The RNs who work at the Senior Adult Unit approach their work with positive attitudes and understanding of illnesses that may have affected their patients in devastating ways. Day in and day out, the compassion and kindness provided to their patients is immeasurable. Please salute the Nurses of the Senior Adult Unit. —Nominated by Shirley Conway
