“If I had missed my mammogram, who knows what would’ve happened.”

Julia Wayne never skipped her annual mammogram. When a routine screening came back abnormal, it set in motion a journey through a breast cancer diagnosis, surgery and treatment at Norton Cancer Institute.

With her family beside her and a care team she describes as both skilled and compassionate, Julia made it through treatment and is now focused on what comes next.

Her message to other women is simple: Keep up with your routine screenings and remember there is life after a cancer diagnosis. 🩷

Carol Rogers spent 37 years in critical care before giving herself permission to take her career in a new direction.

Carol, a clinical nurse educator at the Norton Healthcare Center for Nursing Practice, began her nursing career at Norton Hospital in 1981. Just nine months later, she moved into the intensive care unit and cardiac care unit, where she found a professional home and stayed for nearly four decades.

Eventually, the physical and emotional demands of critical care led Carol to consider what might come next. Her longtime love of learning and interest in education opened that door. She joined what was then the Norton Healthcare Institute for Nursing, now the Center for Nursing Practice, and has spent the past seven years helping support the growth of other nurses.

Looking back, Carol is grateful for the opportunities she has found throughout her 45 years with us and for the different ways she has been able to contribute to patient care and the nursing profession.

Thank you, Carol, for 45 years of dedication, resilience and lifelong learning.
