During Nurses Week each year, Tufts Medical Center honors excellence in nursing with an awards ceremony and reception. Nurses are nominated by their peers, leadership and patients, with a committee choosing the recipients. We are fortunate to have generous donors who sponsor two very special awards: The Ryan Compassionate Care Award and the Edward and Sylvia Jaye Excellence in Nursing Clinical Practice Award.
Tufts Medical Center is recognized by the ANCC Magnet Recognition Program® for excellence in nursing.
