Few can fully appreciate both the unchanging art and rapidly changing science like a healthcare professional who has worked in both eras. Diane L. Puccetti, RN, BSN, MS, Vice President and Chief Nursing Officer at St. Clair Health, began her career in nursing at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh before moving to St. Clair Health in 2004.
“I came to St. Clair as the operating room (OR) manager and, at first, we weren’t that busy, but the goal was to make it busy,” she said, recalling that in the early days of her tenure there were 12 operating rooms that were usually done with all surgeries for the day by early afternoon.

Physical health is a point of considerable focus for most people. However, mental health is tied closely to physical health and therefore deserves equal attention. July is dedicated to promoting social wellness and building healthy relationships.
Such relationships can help improve self-esteem, make it easier to deal with stress, and help a person feel part of a community. Ways to build relationships can be done by spending quality time with family and friends, getting in touch with people you haven't seen for a while, volunteering, joining a club or group, and showing interest in people's lives and listening closely to what they have to say.
