recognized magnet hospital?
You’re looking at it.
Anyone who’s ever been a patient knows a good nurse
makes all the difference in the world.
Anyone who has ever been a patient at Baptist Hospital
East knows that the nurses there are some of the best.
The American Nurses Credentialing Center has made
official what our patients knew all along: Baptist
Hospital East is one of only six Kentucky hospitals to
receive the ANCC Magnet designation for excellence
in nursing services.
Baptist Hospital East salutes our exceptional nurses.

Monday, 7 a.m.Jewish Hospital.Even though we’re known for big medical breakthroughs, it’s still the small things that matter.
It may be our advanced technology and revolutionary procedures that the
world notices. But it’s the small moments of thoughtfulness and compassion
that make the biggest difference in the lives of our patients and their families.
