Palmetto Gold top 100 nurses recognized at gala

by Marilyn Schaffner, Ph.D., R.N.
Clinical Services Administration
On April 24, nurses from Medical University Hospital Authority (MUHA) and from the College of Nursing were recognized at the Palmetto Gold Gala, South Carolina’s premier nurse recognition program of the top 100 nurses in South Carolina. Each year, employers from across South Carolina nominate outstanding nurses from their organizations to be recognized for this prestigious award.
 
From top left are Susan Newman, Cynthia Allen, Florence Simmons, Jeannette Andrews, Mary Hughes Fischer, Sheri Stewart, Karen Rankine and Tiffany Williams. Not pictured is Amanda Budak.

Nurses recognized were Amanda Budak, Mary Fischer, Karen Rankine, Florence Simmons, Sheri Stuart, Cynthia Allen, Jeanette Andrews, Susan Newman and Tiffany Williams. They were saluted at the formal gala for their excellence in nursing practice and commitment to the profession.
 
In addition to providing recognition to deserving professionals, proceeds from the gala will be used to support nursing scholarships for students attending South Carolina education programs.
 
This year, 23 students received scholarships as a result of generous contributions to the Palmetto Gold Nurse Recognition Program. MUSC leadership admires and applauds this year’s recipients of the 2010 Palmetto Gold award.
