MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. — Atrium Health Navicent is welcoming back one of their nurses with open arms.
April Sweatman served 18 years as a nurse, three with Atrium Navicent in Milledgeville.
She was assigned to a National Disaster Medical System team in Lee County, Florida.
Sweatman says she wanted to be there for people in Florida through what could have possibly been their worst moments.
"It's very comforting to give back. Nursing is probably the most rewarding career. I can't see myself doing anything else," Sweatman says.
She was deployed on September 29 for 14 days as Lee Memorial Hospital in Fort Myers.
