The University of Washington Medical Center-Montlake in Seattle has become the first hospital in the United States to earn seven consecutive "Magnet" designations for gold-standard nursing excellence, as defined by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).
UW Medical Center also was the hospital chosen to inaugurate the Magnet designation program, in 1994.
"I am so proud and honored to work with such a distinguished team," said Cindy Sayre, chief nursing officer at the Montlake campus. "Every nurse in the hospital was instrumental to this achievement, which recognizes the excellent care we provide to our patients every day."
