It's official! Rebecca is one of The Great 100 Nurses of North Carolina!
The Great 100 is a one-time award given to the top 100 nurses throughout North Carolina who exemplify the profession. Nurses are nominated by their peers and are chosen through a blind review process. The selection committee is made up of previous Great 100 winners and they only see each candidate's achievements and community service.
Not surprisingly, they read through Rebecca's and thought she deserved the award!
I don't think anyone can say that she isn't dedicated to her patients, coworkers and community and the Great 100 award serves as recognition for all her hard work and care.
Not only that, but the banquet is a great excuse to get all dressed up! :)
And just to show that sometimes unexpected things can happen at big gala events...
We got evacuated in the middle of the keynote address! Fortunately, the building wasn't on fire, but you can bet that if it had been a medical emergency, folks would have been well cared for with a whole hall full of nurses! :)
