Two nurse leaders from Methodist Fremont Health were recognized recently at the Nebraska Nurses Association Convention in Kearney as 40 under 40 award recipients.
Kay Meints, MSN, RN, director of behavioral health and Morgan Kriz, MSN, RN, a clinical nurse educator for surgical services were recognized.
The 40 Under 40 recognition celebrates outstanding nurses under the age of 40 who are making a meaningful difference in their workplaces, their communities and the nursing profession across Nebraska.
Each honoree represents the next generation of nursing leadership – demonstrating excellence in areas such as clinical practice, education, administration, research, policy involvement, and community engagement.
“The 40 Under 40 Awards shine a light on nurses who are leading with purpose, compassion and vision,” said Megan Lowery, MSN-Ed, RN, executive director of the Nebraska Nurses Association. “These honorees inspire those around them, elevate the quality of care in our communities and exemplify the leadership that defines nursing in Nebraska.”
