Nurses at UAMC find their work rewarding because they are able to influence patients' lives and health, see patients improve during their hospital stay, and send patients home with a second chance at life. Working at an academic medical center like UAMC provides a research-based environment where all disciplines work together towards a common goal of superior patient care. Nurses appreciate being part of a team that provides the best care possible to critically ill children and supports one another through challenging times.
