“Working in the NICU means serving as a strong patient advocate for the most vulnerable patients and their families. I love to be there for them in the good times and bad. These babies and their families need support in all aspects of their care. I know I’m in the right spot.”
ASHLEY REED,
RN, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Children's Medical Center Dallas
"Watching nurses care for my dad during cancer, and later for my mom near the end of her Alzheimer's journey...I saw how much nurses carry and how much it matters when systems support them instead of getting in their way. If I can build tools that make their work a little easier, clearer or more human, that feels deeply meaningful to me.”
JERRY STEVENSON,
Information Systems Architect
