Welcome to Kaweah Delta Health Care District’s Nursing website.

As Chief Nursing Officer, I invite you to join Kaweah Delta’s Magnet Status celebration as we proudly announce our achievement of the highest international recognition for excellence in nursing and healthcare organizations. Our continued journey promises to be both rigorous and rewarding as we examine all aspects of patient care delivery and nursing practice to promote outstanding clinical outcomes and provide excellent service.

I am honored to represent the many expert and skilled support staff dedicated to providing patient-centered care with compassion. Our nursing philosophy demonstrates the commitment of over 1,200 RNs to professional excellence through lifelong learning; building collaborative interdisciplinary teams to deliver high-quality care; and creating a caring-healing environment through our partnerships with patients, families, and co-workers.

Our support for nursing advancement is extensive, including leadership development through participation in various nursing governance councils, assistance with education and national specialty certifications, as well as bonus opportunities through our Professional Advancement System for Nurse Clinicians. We celebrate individual and organizational accomplishments as we expand our services, utilize exciting new technologies, challenge ourselves to explore innovative systems and processes, and disseminate new nursing knowledge.

Embracing Caring Theory as a foundation for professional practice throughout the organization, Kaweah Delta nurses are committed to delivering personal, professional, and compassionate care to every person, every time. Thank you for taking the time to visit us; we invite you to join us on our continued journey to nursing excellence!

Linda Pruett, MSN, RN, NEA-BC
