As CEO, Chris Harrison shared: “The cultural foundation we've been building is not only real, it’s also lasting.”

Happy National Nurses Week!

Across Quorum Health affiliated hospitals and care settings, nurses are on the frontlines every day—delivering compassionate, patient-centered care to their communities.

In honor of Nurses Week 2026, Michele Reynolds, Chief Nursing Executive of Quorum Health, shared this message of gratitude:

“The 2026 Nurses Week theme, The Power of Nursing, honors the critical role nurses play in communities across the country. Nursing is at the heart of healthcare, and our nurses embody everything this week represents—and more. The power of nursing goes beyond clinical. It’s in the hand you hold after a difficult diagnosis, the calm voice in a moment of fear, the thoughtful notes that guide transitions of care, and the positivity you bring to each new day.
To nurses everywhere—thank you for all that you do and for the difference you make every day.”

Ten years ago, Quorum Health was founded on a simple but powerful belief: that local health care is the heartbeat of a community.

Over the past decade, we’ve faced our share of challenges — a global pandemic, workforce pressures, industry disruption — and we’ve met every one of them with the same determination that has defined us from the start.

Along the way, we've made hard decisions, invested where we could, built new partnerships, and worked to support the teams who show up every day — because local health care is worth fighting for. We've also been recognized as a Best Place to Work in Healthcare by Modern Healthcare and by the Nashville Business Journal — a reflection of the people who make this mission possible every day.

Here’s to a tradition of care and to the next ten years!
