Anyone who has ever spent time in the hospital knows that although physicians are vital and generally extremely qualified, it is often the nursing staff that handles the majority of the heavy lifting both literally and figuratively.
Natalie Ashby, nurse administrator for Intermountain St. George Regional Hospital said she values the strong collaboration between physicians and nurses at St. George Hospital, but she is particularly honored to represent the nurses and all they contribute.
“Nurses aren’t just there to give you a bed bath,” Ashby said. “They do that, but their primary role is to keep our patients safe.”
