Through our exemplary teamwork and collaboration, we have maintained an exceptional reputation throughout the hospital.

This has been a challenge that we have met with open arms and open minds. Throughout this experience, 10 Tower staff is now regarded as the content experts for COVID-19 patients. We have gained hands-on experience on materials and conditions that have made our staff even more versatile and invaluable to Atrium Health.
