Two YSN faculty members, Vanya Hamrin and Alison Moriarty-Daley, were recently selected as winners of the 2007 Nightingale Award for Nursing Excellence in Connecticut.
This program, begun several years ago by the VNA of South Central Connecticut, honors nurses who make special contributions to patient care.
Also in connection with this program, a member of YSN's Class of 2007, Cathryn Imperato, was awarded one of five Nightingale Scholarships in recognition of her potential as a practicing nurse upon graduation.
YSN Assistant Professor Linda Pellico '89 delivered the keynote address at this year's Nigthingale Awards banquet.
