Beverly Curry, BSN, RN
Staff Nurse IV
Coordinating Council Staff Chair
In 2024 the Coordinating Council went through some restructuring giving more ownership to the staff nurse by creating a staff chair and chair-elect role and realigning the department manager to a supportive role. By creating this shift, it has empowered our nurses to take the lead in decision making on projects and give ownership of the change to the nurses that are closest to the work. Nurses can influence the work and problem-solve to improve quality, patient safety, and care experience. By doing so they are elevating the profession of nursing. One notable achievement had been promoting the Nurse Excellence Survey resulting in substantially improved results from 2022 survey.
