Nursing

Nurses are at the heart of every aspect of patient care at HSS from educating patients about their conditions and procedures, to assisting our famed surgeons in the most advanced procedures. They are the round-the-clock physical, clinical, emotional, and educational support system for patients and their families. These talented professionals are members of a strong, progressive department focused on excellence. They have chosen to bring their superior training, creativity, vision, and skills to HSS because they are committed to delivering the world’s best patient care, and they know that HSS supports, even demands, the same ceaseless excellence.
