Anne Bowers is a research nurse that works closely with patients, families, and staff. When a child is diagnosed with cancer, Anne works with the family and the child in the hospital providing them with information that they will need over the next several years. After discharge, she will follow up with them in the outpatient clinic to ensure that their questions and needs are addressed. She works closely with staff addressing questions about the patient and family to help provide a continuum of excellent care.
Anne most recently helped create a smooth transition for the hematology/oncology clinic from Mission Children's Clinics to the SECU Cancer Center. She took on a leadership role and added responsibilities to make the transition as seamless as possible for staff and patients. As a research nurse, she worked with staff and physicians to prepare for a successful audit. Anne's dedication and compassion for nursing is displayed everyday in her interactions with patients, families and staff.
