Biederman acknowledged as one of 100 Distinguished Public Health Nurses in North Carolina

Donna Biederman, associate professor, is among 100 distinguished public health nurses in North Carolina being honored during the 100 Years of the Office of Public Health Nursing in NC centennial celebrations this year.

There were four professional categories for nominees (front line public health nurses, supervisors / directors, Division of Public Health nurse consultants, and public health faculty). The awards committee noted, "The recipients demonstrate noteworthy evidence of Innovation, Collaboration, Community Centered Care, or Professionalism in their work setting.  Being selected demonstrates that these nurses stand out as leaders in North Carolina’s public health workforce. ...Being selected is a tremendous distinction as this award will be given only once as part of the 100 Years of the Office of Public Health Nursing in NC celebrations."

The group will be recognized and receive their awards at an awards luncheon in September.
