posted January 26th, 2009
Miriam Nguyen, RN, Cardiac Care Unit at DUH, received the Heart Center Award for Excellence in Cardiovascular Nursing in Recognition of Mary Ann Peter. A colleague said:
“Miriam leads by example and has an excellent rapport with the health care team. When in charge she is very visible on the unit and willing to do whatever it takes to provide safe patient care. She is an advocate for news nurses to ensure they are assigned to challenging yet appropriate patients.”
