It was a thrilling day for UHS and a first big day for the almost-completed Wilson Main Tower to really shine. UHS employees, providers and volunteers got a firsthand look at the new tower at UHS Wilson Medical Center on May 15 when a Grand Preview Event was held for everyone on Team UHS.

In recognition of National Hospital Week, UHS honors the providers, employees and volunteers of the UHS System for the extraordinary care and service delivered all through the year. National Hospital Week, this year observed from May 12 to 18, is the nation’s leading annual healthcare observance, a celebration of the history, technology and professionalism that make hospitals beacons of hope, confidence and care.

May is a big month at UHS, as the healthcare system honors our incredible health professionals for their dedication and celebrates the opening of the Wilson Main Tower in Johnson City.

Healthcare in the U.S. has changed dramatically over the past 50 years and the profession of nursing has evolved with it, becoming more indispensable than ever in creating a great patient experience. Nursing today is often called the “lifeblood of healthcare organizations.”
