Going the Extra Mile - or Hundred - for Patients

Article

In this month's episode, we'll hear from one extraordinary oncology nurse who ran 100 miles for cancer research.

A passion for running and helping her patients has led Angela Hammack, BSN, RN, OCN, to do great things. In 2017, Hammack, a charge nurse and clinical educator with Jackson Oncology Associates, ran a 100-mile race for cancer research and patient care. Her efforts continued after that, and to-date, she has raised over $100,000 for the cause.

For this month’s episode, we’ll hear from Hammack—who was also a finalist for CURE’s 2019 Extraordinary Healer Award—about what keeps her motivated.
