Beaumont Hospital, Troy Receives Scholarship from Credit Union ONE to support Nurses Magnet Program

Ferndale, Michigan – Credit Union ONE presented a $1,500 scholarship to Beaumont Hospital, Troy on May 19, 2010 in support of the Magnet Recognition ProgramTM designation that was recently achieved by the Troy nursing staff at the hospital.

The scholarship will allow an additional nurse to attend the annual conference, at which they will receive accolades from their peers, as well as be able to take part in additional classes that they would not normally have access to.

Specifically, the program recognizes hospitals who demonstrate excellence in the management, philosophy and practices of nursing services; adherence to national standards to improve the quality of patient care services; nursing leadership in supporting professional practice and nursing competence; and understanding and respect for the cultural and ethnic diversity of patients, their families and other health care providers.
