It was an incredible honour to spend the day at the United Nations, recognizing 21 brave, pioneering and world-changing nurses from around the globe. It was doubly enjoyable to celebrate one of our own: Ruth Downing, Labor+Delivery CN-III. Ruth has been essential in introducing and integrating into the Labor+Delivery department the culture-change that the Neonatal Comfort Care Program requires in order to most effectively and compassionately serve its babies and families. It is a great privilege to be part of this team that includes selfless, courageous, humble and insightful women like Ruth.
