Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital nurse Peggy Farrell threw out the ceremonial first pitch at a Chicago Cubs game at Wrigley Field during Nurses Week. The Cubs honored nurses on May 12, 2010 – Florence Nightingale’s birthday and the last day of National Nurses Week – with special recognition in front of the home crowd. Farrell, manager of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Pediatrics at Good Samaritan Hospital, was chosen by the editors of Nursing Spectrum in an essay contest sponsored in conjunction with Chamberlain College of Nursing. Farrell wrote about her experience with the first abandoned baby at the hospital under new Safe Haven laws. Visit Advocate Health Care at www.advocatehealth.com.
