MVH hosted a Nurse Appreciation Day Breakfast on May 7 to celebrate and thank its nurses. During the event, Mary Lou Murt, senior vice president of nursing, presented the 2015 Cameos of Caring® Award to Crystal Harvey, a registered nurse on the Behavioral Health Unit.
In nominating his colleague, Crystal Harvey, for the award, John Hartman, RN, wrote:
"Crystal is a model nurse who has a keen eye and a strong sense of responsibility. As a patient advocate, she will encourage a family meeting during treatment and is excellent at providing support and education to our families," he said.
Crystal thanked her co-workers and said that she was 20 when she started working at MVH. "I've had a lot of rewarding experiences over the last 25 years and they're all near and dear to my heart," said the West Newton resident, wife and mother of three.
