SNI would like to announce that our NURSE OF THE YEAR 1st Place Runner-Up is...

John Cartin

John started his contractor career with SNI in 2007 when we put out an urgent call for home care nurses to work in Philadelphia. This was a new client for SNI and all the contract details were literally being worked out as we were interviewing and processing paperwork with John. It was a harried start to say the least but John kept his wits about himself and persavered through the bumps of a client startup and remains working with that client through today. He has provided exemplery home nursing care to his patients and has always been flexible and able to jump in if other areas fell short. John started as a Nursing Assistant at Frankford Hospital beginning his RN career in 1998 at the same hospital. He worked fulltime in Ortho, Med/Surg and the Surgical unit while working fulltime at a family greenhouse business and then eventually transitioned into Home care and Long Term care, wanting to learn many aspects of Nursing and expand his career choices. John is a big reasons why our home care client remains a customer of SNI today and every day John continues to change the lives of his patients through proper care, teaching and management

Both Rosalind and John will be presented with Awards and we will post photos on our website.

Congratulations to our Winners and all those that continue Caring throughout the year!
