Nursing Mission
The Department of Nursing at Bridgeport Hospital exists to provide safe, comprehensive, quality patient- and family-centered care.

Nurses are cognizant of their own hierarchy of physical, mental, emotional & spiritual needs, awareness of self-care practice and that of the collaborative team around them. Bridgeport Hospital nurses are aware of the ever-changing healthcare environment, updating and developing new services to meet the changes in patients’ needs in a collaborative, competent, caring and cost-effective manner.
