Congratulations to four of our incredible ICU nurses who recently earned their CCRN certification; one of the most respected credentials in critical care nursing!

Mary Rose Harrison, Kaylen Oldham, Carmen Burkholder, and Sarah Wiseman put in the hard work, and it shows. Together, they bring nearly 19 combined years of dedicated service to our patients and community right here in the Ozarks.

The CCRN is not just a credential. It's a commitment to excellence, to the patients in our care, and to the communities that we serve. We are so proud to call these four nurses part of the Baxter Health family.

That is the Baxter Difference.

We know many moms are balancing work, family, and everything in between, so we want to create something that is truly supportive and accessible.

Please comment below or send us a message with:
• Whether you’d be interested
• Pregnancy or postpartum group (or both!)
