During the IU Health Bloomington Nursing Professional Governance (BNPG) Council’s November meeting, members reflected on a recent IU Health Day of Service cheerful card activity and discussed other options to care for people in the community.

“We learned of local elementary schools in Monroe County that need items to keep their students warm and feeling secure during the winter months,” shares Kristy Todd, RN, NPD-BC, Bloomington Magnet program coordinator. “This is when Warm Hearts Winter Drive started.”

Council nurses collaborated with their unit-based teams to collect needed items, including coats, hats, gloves and socks to support children at a local elementary school in Bloomington. Then, BNPG council members delivered the donations after their December meeting.

“Watching our Nursing Professional Governance come together to support the coat, hat, mittens and socks drive is a powerful reminder of who nurses are at our core,” shares Bloomington Chief Nursing Officer Cindy Herrington, DNP, FNP. “In this season of giving, our nurses are extending care beyond our walls and into the community—meeting children where they are and reminding them, they matter. That spirit of service is what makes nursing so special.”

Congratulations to DAISY Award winner Caitlin Hurley, RN, with our IU Health Bloomington Labor and Delivery team!

“Having a baby is one of the most pivotal times in someone’s life,” says Caitlin. “It’s scary, exciting, and vulnerable, so I try to show up for them in the way that they need, which can look different for each patient.”

Caitlin's nomination came from a patient, who said, "With Caitlin, I felt like I had a constant presence—someone who saw me, heard me and supported me through a whirlwind experience...My husband and I still talk about her, and we are forever grateful that she was part of our story.”

Did you know that pneumonia causes more than a million hospitalizations and more than 50,000 deaths every year?

And older adults have a greater risk for serious illness and death from this disease.

That’s why the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) encourages those 50 or older to get the pneumococcal vaccine and decrease their risk of getting pneumonia.

Call your IU Health Primary Care Provider today to schedule your pneumococcal vaccine. Or visit https://iuhealth.org/find-medical-services/primary-care to find a primary care provider near you.
