AORN Journal, August, 2002
The California Pacific Medical Center has established a $2,500 national award for the health care professional or team judged to have developed the best new idea in patient education. The new California Pacific Award for Excellence in Patient Education will be awarded to an individual or team who has developed an outstanding patient education program at an acute care hospital.
The award is funded by a donation from the Mr and Mrs Arthur A. Ciocca Foundation, and California Pacific is inviting nurses, physical therapists, hospital administrators, medical librarians, transplant coordinators, radiology technologists, diabetes educators, alternative therapy professionals, and other health care providers throughout the United States to apply for the award. A team of California Pacific physicians, nurses, and voluntary community advisors will judge submissions.
