Providence Mission
Hospital is home to multiple generations of nurses, who have
provided high-quality life-long health and well-being care for
their friends, neighbors and members of the greater south Orange
County community.
This Nurse's Week (May
6 – 12, 2024), we're shining the light on four nursing teams who
care for each person that comes into the hospital like family. The
parents on each team have worked at the hospital for decades and
inspired their children to join the nursing ranks. Below are their
stories.
