The department of Surgery would like to congratulate Elizabeth Schreiber, RN, on her recent award from UNC.The Nursing Recognition Awards, established in 1990, serve as recognition of the contributions that nurses make in support of patient care, teaching, research and the public service mission of UNC.
The awards are valued at $1,000 each and may be used over a three-year period to cover expenses related to professional development. Winners were divided into four categories: Inpatient Services, Outpatient Services, Advanced Practices and Specialty Services, and Nurse Management.
Schreiber herself serves as a Nurse Educator and her colleagues say, “The division would not function without her.” Schreiber manages patient flow and triage for eight surgeons and four ARPs while also coordinating patient tests and follow-ups.
