Local Nurse Wins National Award

By  | 

    Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific technical and medical information products and services, announced the winners of Mosby’s nursing suite “Superheroes of Nursing”, a contest aimed to search and identify the real-life superheroes in the nursing profession. Launched during nursing week (May 6-12), the contest was part of a nationwide campaign to recognize nurses who represent four key categories- the validators, the achievers, the educators, and the protectors and identify the challenges that they face daily. The winners were announced on October 5, 2011 at the 13th annual ANCC Magnet Conference in Baltimore, Maryland. April Morris was the winner of the “the Protector” category. She is a graduate of Central High School and Southeastern Louisiana University. She is a registered nurse currently employed at Woman’s Hospital as a charge nurse in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
