During Nurses Week, May 6–13, 2026, South Branch Hospitalist and Internal Medicine would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our nurse (Suenette Kuykendall) and nurses everywhere for the compassion, dedication, and care you provide each day.

Your strength, kindness, and commitment make a lasting difference in the lives of patients, families, and our entire community. We are grateful for the long hours, comforting words, and healing hands you bring to healthcare every day.

Our celebration included a special luncheon and a beautiful cake by Cakes by Mindy as a small token of appreciation for all that our nurses do.

Thank you for all that you do — this week and always. 💙🩺

We were proud to take part in Community Helper Week at Grant County Preschool, held at Presbyterian Church! 🩺💙

A special thank you to our LPN, Suenette Kuykendall, for representing our office and spending time with the students. She did a wonderful job-sharing what nurses do and helping the children learn about staying healthy in a fun and engaging way.

It’s always an honor to support our community—both inside and outside the office. Thank you to Grant County Preschool and the Presbyterian Church for having us, and to all the little learners who made this experience so special!
