Today Bayhealth and TidalHealth came together for our Joint Education Day, a day grounded in transformational leadership, collaboration and genuine partnership.

Bringing our teams together was not just about sharing best practices. It was about strengthening the relationships, ideas and collective vision that will elevate the care we provide to our communities. The nurse leaders in the room today are truly changing the gauge in healthcare, leading with purpose, compassion and innovation.

We are especially grateful for leaders like Rosi Wurster, Chief Nurse Executive at Bayhealth and Angie Brittingham, Chief Nursing Officer at TidalHealth. Their commitment to keeping patients at the center of every decision continues to inspire us and pave the way for meaningful progress across our region.

Together, we are building a future where collaboration drives outcomes, partnerships strengthen our practice and our community benefits from the very best in nursing leadership.

Thank you to everyone who made today possible and to all who continue to lead with commitment and heart.
