She recently completed her Master's in Nursing with a specialty in Informatics, focusing on creating seamless medical records throughout her organization. As Co-Chair of the HMHN Nursing Informatics Council for the Northern Region, Nancy spearheaded the Timeless project, a patient safety improvement initiative that took over a year and a half to implement. Her leadership involved planning, building, testing, training, and collaborating with an interprofessional team, impacting NICU, PICU, Pediatrics, EMU, and Peds Oncology departments.</p> <p>Nancy’s compassionate care extends to her role as co-chair of the NICU Bereavement Committee. She has provided invaluable support to families during difficult times, such as organizing professional photo shoots for grieving parents to create lasting memories. Her personal experience with prematurity, having a brother born prematurely with developmental delays, inspired her career in neonatal nursing. Nancy’s commitment to excellence and her ability to integrate personal empathy with professional expertise make her an outstanding advocate for patients and their families.</p> <p>At the bedside, Nancy is known for her keen assessment skills and her ability to recognize subtle changes in her fragile patients. She is a wonderful advocate for both her patients and their families. Her dedication to continuous improvement and education, coupled with her compassionate approach, has made her the heart and soul of her NICU unit.</p> <p>Nancy Mingari’s remarkable contributions, leadership, and dedication to patient safety and care inspire those around her every day.
