  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Kay Miller for her outstanding service to the field of health and our 
community.
  As the Vice President of Patient Care Services and Chief Nursing 
Officer at St. Anthony Hospital, Kay is known for her dedication to her 
patients, staff and hospital associates. Prior to working at St. 
Anthony Hospital, she served as Vice President and Chief Nursing 
Officer at Medical Center of the Rockies in Loveland. Kay brings more 
than 30 years of experience in nursing, health care administration, and 
patient safety. Throughout her work at St. Anthony, Kay has been 
committed to enhancing the culture of the hospital through employee 
engagement and a continual focus on patient satisfaction.
  Kay uses her passion to help inspire others, and uses her knowledge 
to mentor nursing directors and those aspiring to be at the nurse 
executive level. Her teams' accomplishments include the Malcolm 
Baldrige National Quality Award for health systems, the youngest 
hospital to receive a Magnet Designation, the Beacon Award for Critical 
Care Excellence, two Lantern Awards for Emergency Nursing Excellence 
and Patient Satisfaction Overall Top Performer for five years. Kay is 
also a member of the Front Range Community College Area Advisory 
Council.
  I extend my deepest congratulations to Kay Miller for her well-
deserved honor by the West Chamber serving Jefferson County. I have no 
doubt she will exhibit the same dedication and character in all her 
future accomplishments.
