Beth Schutte, RN, BSN, nurse manager, Rehabilitation Services, Blessing Hospital, retires July 19, 2024, after 36 years of service, all in Blessing’s Rehabilitation department.
“Our region is fortunate to have a comprehensive inpatient Rehabilitation Unit,” Schutte said. “We help people recovering from illness or injury regain their independence and get back to the daily activities they enjoy. Seeing patients improve is truly rewarding.”
Blessing Hospital Inpatient Rehabilitation Services is an 18-bed unit providing nursing, physical, occupational, and speech-language therapy for people who have lost their independence due to a variety of conditions including stroke, brain trauma, spinal cord injury, amputation and other neurological and orthopedic conditions. The unit has been nationally accredited for its quality care and outcomes since 1998.
A graduate of the Blessing Hospital School of Nursing and Chamberlain College of Nursing, Schutte holds the status of certified registered rehabilitation nurse, certified brain injury specialist and board-certified nurse executive. She is a member of the Association of Rehabilitation Nurses.
