Meet Brittany Gillette, RN, from 7W, and the powerful story behind why she became a nurse.

Brittany’s first career was in law enforcement as a village police officer. During that time, she worked closely with a young boy who was struggling with serious life stressors and mental health challenges.

Despite her efforts, accessing the mental health support he needed was incredibly difficult. One day, a situation escalated. In that moment, it was clear he needed more help than the system was providing. Brittany decided to bring him to Upstate, where he was finally able to access the mental health resources he needed.

That experience changed the course of her career. Brittany went on to nursing school to become a child and adolescent psychiatric nurse, determined to be another resource for children in crisis.

Today, she continues that mission in her nursing practice, while still working per diem as a police officer. Her long-term goal is to one day teach mental health and crisis response in police academies, helping bridge the gap between law enforcement and mental health care.

We are incredibly grateful to have Brittany on our team! Her passion makes such an impact on so many lives! Brittany is also planning on going for her Psych NP!

Thanks to Upstate Nursing SMA Kate for highlighting Brittany!

Shoutout to Kim, RN, and Social Media Ambassador, for bringing the fun (and the teamwork!) to her unit with an annual Easter egg hunt tradition!

What a joy-filled day for this team, creating moments of excitement not just for themselves, but for their patients who got to join in on the fun and watch the hunt unfold!

Team building like this goes far beyond the moment; it strengthens connections, boosts morale, and fosters a supportive environment that ultimately enhances patient care. When teams feel connected, everyone benefits.

Safe to say this was a shift full of smiles, laughter, and a whole lot of teamwork!

Since the start of the Spring 2024 semester, our nurse leaders have dedicated an incredible ~888 hours to hosting Le Moyne College Baccalaureate nursing students as part of their Management & Leadership course.

Each hour represents mentorship, real-world leadership exposure, thoughtful conversation, and an investment in the future of nursing. These 24-hour shadow experiences give students a front-row seat to the complexity, responsibility, and heart behind nurse leadership.

To our nurse managers: thank you for saying yes to teaching, to guiding, and to shaping the next generation of nurse leaders. Your commitment is felt, valued, and making a lasting difference.

Join us in congradualting Jenny Nguyen, RN from the Adult Med-Surg Support Pool on her DAISY award for February 2026!

Jenny's nomination recognized her for her extraordinary compassion, kindness, and unwavering dedication to both her patient and his family during multiple hospital stays. Her presence brought comfort, reassurance, and even moments of light during an incredibly difficult time. She cared for her patient not just clinically, but personally, advocating fiercely, listening deeply, and always leading with warmth and grace.

Even in the most challenging moments, Jenny created a sense of peace and trust that meant everything. Her ability to make both patient and family feel seen, supported, and never in the way is a testament to the kind of nurse she is.

Described as “the best part” of a hospital experience, Jenny’s care left a lasting impact that will never be forgotten. She truly embodies what the DAISY Award stands for. compassion, humanity, and excellence in nursing.

Jenny was celebrated on her unit with Upstate Nursing leadership, her manager and team! Congratulations Jenny!
