Nursing Excellence. A Magnet hospital is one where nurses deliver exceptional patient care, nurses have a high level of job satisfaction, and there is a low nurse turnover rate. Woman's values nurses, involves them in shaping research-based nursing practices, and encourages and rewards them for advancing.
Congratulations to Woman's nurses for achieving Magnet status.
