Excellence in Nursing

Every year Hudson Valley Magazine is proud to pay tribute to the area’s top nurses in our May issue along with the 2024 Excellence in Nursing Awards coinciding with National Nurses Week. This elegant evening honors local nurses who have gone above and beyond the call of duty, nominated by their supervisors, and selected by a panel of judges. The event features cocktails, a three-course sit-down dinner, live music and an award presentation.
