The nominations are in and the stage is set for An Evening With the Stars, the annual sparkling celebration of all that is good about Johns Hopkins Nursing. Its Shining Star Awards honor outstanding nurses in the Johns Hopkins community. Nominees are invited to the event, and winners are announced at the ceremony. Candace Dold of WBFF, Fox 45 will emcee.

New this year is a category for Preceptor. In addition, the Cynthia and Peter Rosenwald Star Nurse of the Year Award, also announced at the event, recognizes a critical care nurse at JHH who goes beyond the call of duty in providing compassionate and competent care.
