Eastern CT

The Nightingale Awards for Excellence in Nursing program was originally developed by the Visiting Nurse Association of South Central CT (VNA/SCC) to be a collaborative effort to celebrate outstanding nurses and elevate the nursing profession. The goals of the program are to encourage retention, inspire future nurses, focus public attention and recognize the breadth and scope of nursing practice at the local level.

Over  the past eight years, the Eastern Regional program has honored more than 395  nurses of excellence.  This year we are  excited to be hosting our ninth annual Nightingale Awards for Nursing  Excellence celebration.  We expect to  honor 50 nurses and host over 500 guests at the event on May 5th at  the Mystic Marriott Hotel and Spa.
