But the \u201cbest\u201d encompasses a host of traits: Caring, concerned, professional, thoughtful of the patient, strong-willed when called for and gentle when needed.<\/p>\n<p>In its inaugural year, Nightin Gala will celebrate those characteristics in nurses and the profound effect nurses have on patients and community healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>During the event, the UTC School of Nursing will present two awards: The Outstanding Alumni Award and the Outstanding Community Partner Award.<\/p>\n<p>The person selected as Outstanding Alumni is someone recognized by peers as a superior nurse who has helped mentor other nurses in their professional development. Over the course of a nursing career, the person will have made significant contributions in the areas of nursing education, practice, administration, research or health policy. These accomplishments can be made in the local, national or international level.<\/p>\n<p>The Outstanding Community Partnership Award will be presented to an individual, agency or organization that has been a mentor in the professional growth and development of nurses and contributed to the profession of nursing and its practice. The winner must have exhibited leadership and guidance in health care delivery and service to individuals, communities or populations at local, regional, state, national and\/or international levels as well as contributions to nursing education, administration, research, and\/or health policy.<\/p>\n<p>At Nightin Gala, Barbara Norwood also will be recognized as the School of Nursing\u2019s newest professor emeritus. She came to UTC in 1974, the year the School of Nursing began offering courses. Over the years, she has influenced and inspired hundreds, if not thousands, of students.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In its inaugural year, Nightin Gala will celebrate the integral part that nurses play in the lives of their patients and in community healthcare overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><span><a class=\"more-link button text\" href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2018\/10\/nightin-gala-honors-the-profound-impact-of-nurses\/\"><span>Continue Reading <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1105,"featured_media":23518,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_slider":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_featurette":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[123864,12659,8244,64,4936],"tags":[83244],"class_list":{"0":"post-23506","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-advancement-and-alumni","8":"category-events-entertainment","9":"category-honors-and-awards","10":"category-news","11":"category-school-of-nursing","12":"tag-nightin-gala","13":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
