48 finalists tapped for South Central Excellence Awards

IT IS OUR PLEASURE to reveal the names of NURSEWEEK's 2003 South Central Nursing Excellence Awards finalists. Forty-eight nurses have been named finalists in eight categories.

These distinguished nurses will be invited to attend a celebration of nursing and awards in October in Houston, where we will recognize the extraordinary work they do. We also will honor one winner in each category.

The Nursing Excellence Awards is one way that NURSEWEEK helps to recognize the outstanding contributions that nurses make to their patients, each other and our profession. Join us in congratulating this year's finalists.

-Beth Ulrich, Ed.D., RN, CHE
