Awards

In memory of Jana Quinn, the members of Professional Women in Healthcare created the Jana Quinn Inspirational Award. This award recognizes an inspirational person in the healthcare industry, male or female, with qualities that define their success not only professionally, but throughout life. The recipient will encompass the qualities that were an inherent part of Jana.  She was a mentor, role model, leader, family focused, professional, a loyal friend, a person not afraid to struggle, encouraging, accepting, and so much more.  Jana’s combination of endearing qualities drew others in and made them better just by knowing her.
