The Diamond Jubilee Awards represent the highest honor that the nursing profession in Connecticut can bestow on one of its own, a kind of “Nobel Prize” in nursing. These awards are named after some of the most distinguished leaders in Connecticut nursing history. The Connecticut Nurses Awards celebrates nurses who exemplify the very best in the nursing profession and organizations which made outstanding contributions to nursing, health care policy,  and to the Association.
