In recognition of nurses whose extraordinary efforts stand out, the March of Dimes Washington Chapter held its eleventh annual Western Washington Nurse of the Year Awards honoring local nurses, including one Bothell resident.
Janet Bowen, who works at Overlake Hospital Medical Center, was honored with the “Rising Star” award.
The event, which took place today at the Meydenbauer Conference Center, was presented by Premera Blue Cross. The Chair of the event was Kim Williams, COO of Providence Regional Medical Center Everett.
RNs working at all staff levels in Western Washington were honored in 12 categories surrounded by their peers; nursing professionals who every day set the standards of outstanding patient care. That’s exactly what the Nurse of the Year award celebration is about. The atmosphere is always charged with anticipation and joy as the honorees are announced.
