TENACIOUS CAREGIVER AWARDS
RECOGNIZING OUR NETWORK PARTNERS
To celebrate the incredible impact that all Nurse-Family Partnership nurses and network partners have on families, we wanted to formally recognize and support our amazing teams. We were honored to present the inaugural award in 2018 to Cheryl Spicer, NFP Nurse at Sadler Health Center Nurse-Family Partnership in Carlisle, PA.
NFP nurses requested we expand the scope of this award and we’ve done just that. Nurses, supervisors, administrators and teams can all be nominated. Tenacious Caregiver awards will be presented at the 2019 National Symposium in Nashville, Tennessee in September. Stay tuned to meet the 2019 Tenacious Caregivers!
