At a special dinner and awards gala held in May at four locations throughout Connecticut, Nightingale Awards for Excellence in Nursing were presented to 10 nurses nominated by Masonicare.

The program is open and inclusive of all healthcare settings -- hospitals, home health care, health centers, schools, health departments, long-term care, nursing schools, agencies and medical practices. The following nurses were recognized for their outstanding service to Masonicare:

- Masonicare Home Health & Hospice: Kerrie Greene Soares, RN, Denise Dunnigan, LPN, Julie Boardman, RN, BSN, Mary Queally, RN

- Masonicare Partners Home Health & Hospice: Paula Nekiunas Lambert, RN, BS-HCA, Kathleen Kearney Worthington RN, BSN

This year, at the tenth annual Nightingale Awards presentations, these special nurses were honored at concurrent award dinners held in Groton, Stamford, Hartford and Wallingford. Stephen B. McPherson, President and CEO of Masonicare, said, "We are very proud of the outstanding nurses who work throughout the Masonicare continuum. Their dedication and commitment to our residents and patients are exemplary, and it is especially gratifying that we honor them at a time when National Nurse's Week is also celebrated." Masonicare is Connecticut's leading not-for-profit provider of healthcare and retirement living for seniors.
