How ICU nurse April Eldridge’s journey turned pain into purpose
In this profile for Celebrating Nurses 2025, we highlight April Eldridge, a dedicated ICU nurse whose journey into nursing was shaped by deeply personal experiences. As a child, she witnessed the compassion of a nurse who cared for her mother during a critical illness. Years later, that same nurse cared for her best friend—and remembered her name. Today, April carries that legacy forward, providing exceptional care not only within hospital walls but in everyday life. Her story reflects the heart of nursing: Empathy, service, and purpose-driven care. April represents the best of what it means to be a nurse.
