LIBERTY, Mo., February 25, 2025 – At Liberty Hospital, care is more than a profession—it’s a calling answered with compassion, dedication, and a relentless commitment to the well-being of our community. For the third consecutive year, Grand Canyon University (GCU) has stepped forward to honor that commitment by sponsoring Liberty Hospital’s Employee Celebrations and Nurses Week. This partnership goes beyond financial support; it’s about recognizing the heart and soul of healthcare—the people who make a difference every day.
Nurses play a vital role in the well-being of our community, and GCU’s ongoing support ensures that their contributions are celebrated and valued. From special recognition events to heartfelt gestures of appreciation, this sponsorship is about honoring those who quietly and courageously care for others day in and day out.

Their sponsorship isn’t just about funding events; it’s about celebrating the heart and soul of healthcare—our people. We are grateful for their partnership and for helping us show our nurses and staff how much they are appreciated,” said Michael C. Russell, CAE, Executive Director of the Liberty Hospital Foundation.
The support from GCU allows Liberty Hospital to celebrate Nurses Week in a meaningful way, acknowledging the everyday acts of compassion and dedication shown by our nursing staff. From providing exceptional care to supporting patients and families through difficult times, our nurses’ impact is immeasurable.
“Nurses show up every day with compassion and dedication, touching lives in ways that often go unnoticed. This partnership with Grand Canyon University is about recognizing those daily efforts and making sure our nurses feel valued,” said Jacklyn Gentry, Ed.D, RN, Senior Director of Professional Practice at Liberty Hospital.
This ongoing partnership is about more than just sponsorship; it’s about recognizing and celebrating the individuals who make Liberty Hospital a place of hope and healing. With GCU’s continued support, we can show our gratitude to the nurses and staff who go above and beyond every day.
