What is the Nightingale Event?

The Nightingale Luminary Award Ceremony was established in Northeastern Colorado in 1985 to acknowledge the outstanding nurses in our region, whose hard work and dedication improves other's health through their advocacy, innovation, and leadership.

This award was named after Florence Nightingale in honor of her many years of service as a leader, innovator, and advocator of the Nursing profession. She was known as a pioneer of her time, and her practices still influence the field of nursing. Today, new pioneers work hard to revolutionize nursing and make an impact in our communities. Centennial Area Health Education Center would like to show its support for the education of nurses by offering five $500 scholarships during the event. We hope that this will show students the importance of their education.
