2002 Founders Award Winner

Pam Peiper
Pam has been recognized in the State of Florida as one of the leading experts in pediatric trauma. Dr. J.J. Tepas, professor of Surgery and Pediatrics at the University of Florida writes, "Ms. Pieper has been identified as a unique asset. Her work in the State of Florida to develop and continue to refine its trauma care system stands as yet another unique demonstration of her almost immeasurable capabilities. Ms. Pieper has worked with colleagues in the Department of Health to refine the process of documentation of trauma center standards and to enhance the statewide promulgation of systems of quality monitoring, both in the pediatric and adult trauma patients. Her efforts have gained national renown for the State of Florida quality monitoring. Her most recent orchestration of the complex task of re-designation of the University of Florida's Level 1 trauma center and pediatric trauma referral center stands as yet more evidence of this woman's far-reaching talents as a leader, administrator, educator, and investigator."
Dr. Daniel Mollitt, Chief of the Division of Pediatric Surgery writes, "Ms. Pieper was one of the first dedicated pediatric surgical nurses in northeast Florida and she has maintained this focus throughout her career. She serves as an indispensable member of the Pediatric Surgery Services at the University of Florida, providing compassionate care to her patients and support to their families.... Clearly Ms. Pieper has demonstrated ongoing commitment and excellence in clinical care, education and research in pediatric surgery."
