Nightingale Awards for Excellence in Nursing announces honorees

The Nightingale Awards honors nurses for going above and beyond clinical and educational environments. The awards were created 21 years ago as a gala to celebrate and elevate the nursing profession, paying tribute to Florence Nightingale and her willingness to serve her patients.

On Monday, May 8, honorees were attended another gala at The Convention Center in Downtown Hartford. Rebecca Elliot, RN, was honored.

In a little over a year at Mulberry Gardens of Southington, Elliot has made a significant impact as a nursing manager.

“Rebecca is always looking for ways to improve patient care. She truly has a desire to always do the right thing for the seniors she works with and this shows in the way that she fiercely advocates for all of our residents,” says Jacquelyn Gaulin, executive director, Mulberry Gardens.
