Children's Nursing Staff Continues to Excel
Denver's Nursing Star
The nursing staff of 1,800 at The Children’s Hospital plays a huge role in its overall success. Chief Nursing Officer, Kelly Johnson, MSN, RN, NEA-BC, says, "Children's is at the top of their game."
"Part of what I see doing in the future is to continue to establish us as nursing leaders in pediatrics, nationally and internationally,” says Johnson.
When Parents magazine named Children’s one of the “10 Best Children’s Hospitals” in February, it noted that Children's scored the highest amount of points for the nursing section of any hospital in the top ten. Johnson attributes that recognition to “a strong nursing foundation built over decades of really supporting an atmosphere of professional practice and autonomous decision making and the ability of nurses to really work within the context of the team, and to be a valued member of the team.”
