Why I Love Working at MemorialCare
“I have worked at Long Beach Memorial Medical Center for 25 years. Since I was a nursing student at Long Beach Community College, Long Beach Memorial was the only place I wanted to work, and today I am thankful to be part of a professional, knowledgeable and caring team at the Todd Cancer Institute. Providing information and care that helps to bring wholeness into people’s lives makes me proud to do what I do.”

“For the past 12 years, I’ve been a registered nurse in labor and delivery. I’m also one of the nurses who leads the Maternal Transport Program. Over the years, I’ve been involved in saving the lives of many mothers and babies. Miller Children’s is a great hospital with a huge number of resources. There’s a need in the community to bring babies to a hospital with the best care possible. Miller Children’s Hospital can service that need. I commute from Riverside and had all three of my own children at Miller Children’s. The hospital provides the finest level of care in every unit.”

“I’ve worked in the emergency department at Long Beach Memorial for 15 years, beginning as a volunteer in 1989. After I graduated from high school, I was hired as a unit secretary in the emergency department, but still needed education and training to become a nurse. So with tuition support from Long Beach Memorial and encouragement from my manager, I enrolled at El Camino College to pursue a nursing degree. I couldn’t have graduated from nursing school without the help of Long Beach Memorial—both financially and emotionally. The day I began work as a nurse at the hospital was a day of great celebration for all us.
Currently, I manage the entire emergency department staff of 220 registered nurses, emergency department technicians and unit secretaries. Due to the acuity of the patients we treat, everyone has to work as a team.
It’s such challenging and rewarding work. You never know if you’ll be treating newborns or older people, but you’re always working together—as a family.”

Manager, Emergency Department at Long Beach Memorial
“The birth of a child is a very special time. As a nurse in the newborn nursery at Miller Children’s Hospital for more than 18 years, I have had the privilege of interacting with new families and being part of the childbirth process. Every day I have the opportunity to teach a new father how to diaper or bathe his newborn or help a mom breastfeed her baby. I want the best for a mother and her baby, and that is what we strive to provide here at Miller Children’s Hospital. The MemorialCare Center for Women delivered more than 6,000 babies in a year.”

“I’ve been a cardiovascular nurse for 16 years. As a clinical supervisor in the hospital’s Cardiovascular Center for the past three years, I‘m responsible for the daily functioning of the special procedures department and cardiac cath lab. It’s so exciting to be part of the hospital’s growth and expansion. The Cardiovascular Center opened in June 2004 and is state-of-the-art, allowing me to work in a setting that’s on the forefront of technology. At the same time, the environment is warm and cooperative. My co-workers really care about each other and work together to benefit our patients. This teamwork, combined with advanced technology, results in excellent outcomes and a high level of patient satisfaction. At the end of the day, I know why I became a nurse when I discharge a patient and he or she gives me a hug.”

“I began work at Saddleback Memorial two years ago when I moved from Alabama to California. As a nurse in the hospital’s Acute Rehabilitation Unit, I care for patients with orthopedic injuries, strokes and other debilitating conditions. In my 12 years of nursing, this is the most rewarding work I’ve ever done. From the beginning, the level of teamwork and compassion in the rehab unit reminded me of my experience as a member of the Disaster Medical Assistant Team (DMAT) in Alabama—a group I belonged to even after I moved. When I was asked to serve as a DMAT nurse in both the Rita and Wilma hurricane disasters, my new family at Saddleback was incredibly supportive. Everyone at the hospital was enthusiastic about my work helping the victims of these terrible disasters. Saddleback Memorial is a very special place and I love it.”
