- St. Mary’s Hospital: Nurses at Carondelet St. Mary’s Hospital celebrated national Nurses’ Week with the dedication of Darla’s Duds, a collection of donated clothing for patients in need. The clothing closet is named in memory of Registered Nurse Darla Ordway, who died earlier this year. Staff at St. Mary’s Hospital discussed creating a clothes closet for patients last December and Ordway championed the idea. Ordway was manager of the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit at St. Mary’s Hospital and a past president of the Arizona Association of Perioperative Registered Nurses.
