What is Magnet?
ANCC Magnet Recognition Program® is the highest credential a healthcare organization can achieve. It acknowledges the invaluable contributions of nurses in all healthcare settings and among all populations worldwide.
Why is Magnet important?
Magnet designation indicates to patients and the public that these organizations have met the most stringent, evidence-based standards of nursing excellence in patient care delivery. It is a results-driven recognition that fosters nurse engagement, and the role nurses play as members of the interprofessional team to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center was designated as a Magnet organization in 2005, 2009, 2014, and 2020 and is now applying for redesignation.
