CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR NURSING CLINICAL LADDER RECIPIENTS FROM 2020:

Clinical Ladder Growth 2020

The fourth quarter of 2020 saw implementation of a new Clinical Ladder

format. The goals of this new format were many, but focused on increasing nursing activity on committees, education, leadership, process improvement and professionalism. In 2016, three members of the nursing staff were recognized for joining the previous Clinical Ladder. This year, eighteen nurses have joined the new Clinical Ladder! The year 2020 was a year of Clinical Ladder Committee. Chair Laura Chambers, BSN, RN, CWOCN, CFCN, co-chair Chelsea Fowler, RN, SANE and Stephen Wilson, MSN, CCRN welcomed Elizabeth D’Andrea, BSN, RN, C-EFM (from the Baby Place) and Meredith Barten, RN, OCN (from the Asheville Infusion Center). Both Elizabeth and Meredith immediately demonstrated their strengths in carrying on the activities of the committee and improving its effectiveness. Laura diligently served the committee throughout 2020, stepping away from the chair position to accept a managerial role on Wound Care. Great things are expected to continue in 2021, as Chelsea transitioned to chair the committee beginning the fourth quarter, 2020.
