Nassau County Legislator Arnold W. Drucker (D - Plainview) joined Northwell Health CEO Michael Dowling, Plainview Hospital Executive Director Michael Fener and hospital staff on Friday, Oct. 21 to celebrate its Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center for excellence in nursing.
Plainview Hospital underwent its three-day Magnet survey from Wednesday, Aug. 31 through Friday, Sept. 2. The Magnet Recognition Program highlights organizations worldwide where nursing leaders successfully align their nursing strategic goals to improve the organization’s patient outcomes.
“Receiving a Magnet Designation demonstrates to our region what so many of us have long known - that Plainview Hospital is deeply committed to excellence in health care and nursing in particular,” Legislator Drucker said. “It was a privilege to celebrate this well-deserved honor with the healthcare heroes who are the lifeblood of Plainview Hospital each and every day.”
