Nurse2Nurse Peer Support

Commissioner Persichilli, a longtime nurse, encouraged her fellow nurses to take advantage of the new Nurse2Nurse peer support initiative. Resources include the website www.nurse2nurseNJ.com and a toll-free number 844-687-7301, staffed by active and retired nurses Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Persichilli addressed the challenges nurses face amid the pandemic, providing not just clinical care but also emotional support, especially for COVID-19 patients who could not be surrounded by family members.
