UVA Health Prince William Medical Center was designated as a Magnet organization in 2016 and 2021 by the ANCC Magnet Recognition Program^® and is now applying for redesignation.

Why is Magnet important?

Magnet recognition acknowledges the invaluable contributions of nurses in all healthcare settings and among all populations worldwide. It is a results-driven recognition that fosters nurse engagement and the role nurses play as interprofessional team members to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
