Florida Hospital Hires Heroes?
Yes, we do.
Yes, we do.
We make sure we place the right people into the right positions for a reason. We believe you have the opportunity to touch everyone you come into contact with: patients, families, physicians, co-workers, even strangers walking down the hall.
Your interactions with people have a huge impact on them, and you might not ever know. You are a hero in someone’s eyes.
Each week I will spotlight how our nurses are heroes and inspire people through their passion for nursing.
If you know a nurse who is a hero and has touched you or your family’s lives, or a nurse hero that should be recognized for all they do, please leave a comment below.

He was voted Model of Excellence for 2009 at Florida Hospital, Endoscopy. He started his career in Military Police and heard God's calling to be a nurse in 1979. His devotion to his country also shows in the same devotion to his patients.
ReplyDeleteWow! Thank you for recognizing Peter.
ReplyDeleteI am glad we can learn what a true hero Peter is! Not only does he dedicate his life to service at Florida Hospital, but he has also dedicated his life for his country. We are all truly blessed to work with him.
