About Nursing

The department of nursing at Huntington Memorial Hospital is comprised of registered nurses, clinical nurse specialists, nurse practitioners, licensed practical nurses, licensed technicians, patient care assistants and unit secretaries. This talented group of healthcare providers practice on more than 20 specialty-based nursing units including three critical care units.

Our diverse and dynamic nurse team is supported by a strong, visionary and visible group of nurse leaders who encourage professional growth and foster a healthy work environment. Optimal care delivery is created through interdisciplinary and leadership collaboration and partnerships that promote a safe, positive, knowledgeable, creative and trusting practice environment. As vital members of the interdisciplinary team, RNs are responsible to effectively communicate information related to patient care.

The nursing division continuously seeks to develop, challenge, and mentor nurses through the advancement of their practice and encourages strong partnerships. These solid and strong partnerships have allowed the hospital to pursue Magnet® designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). In addition Huntington Hospital nurses take pride in being part of a Joint Commission certified orthopedic center of excellence as well as a certified primary stroke center.
