Rosanne Karp, RN, ACM, Named Professional of the Year in Nursing & Case Management

    KENNEBUNK, ME, December 08, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Rosanne Karp, Retired Registered Nurse and Case Manager of Massachusetts General Hospital, has been named a Worldwide Branding Professional of the Year in Nursing & Case Management. While inclusion in Worldwide Branding is an honor, only few members in each discipline are chosen for this distinction. These special honorees are distinguished based on their professional accomplishments, academic achievements, leadership abilities, years of service, and the credentials they have provided in association with their Worldwide Branding membership.

Ms. Karp has 47 years of professional experience as a registered nurse, with 16 years as a case manager at Massachusetts General Hospital prior to her retirement. As an expert in gynecologic oncology, she was responsible for coordinating a variety of services, including utilization management, inpatient care, discharge, complex home care, home infusion and hospice. She also coordinated and attended family meetings while assisting physicians, therapists, social workers and registered nurses. Additionally, she assessed appropriate care and documented the clinical condition of patients. As an administrator, she frequently initiated reviews and payment processes, precepted new case managers and educated staff nurses.

As a health care professional, Ms. Karp attributes her success to her passion for nursing, and desire to deliver quality care to her patients and their families. She became involved in her profession because she was inspired by the care given to her when she was diagnosed, as a child, with celiac disease and decided to give back to the community. The highlights of her career were receiving the Marie C. Petrilli Oncology Nursing award and being recognized as a Clinical Scholar by the Massachusetts General Hospital clinical recognition program.

Ms. Karp studied at Cambridge College in 2001 and graduated from Northeastern University College of Nursing in 1967, when she became a registered nurse. Ms. Karp is a former president and treasurer of the Quincy Jewish Committee, a former chairwoman of the Professional Education Committee of the Greater Lawrence Chapter of the American Cancer Society, and a former member of the Professional Education Committee at the Massachusetts State Board of the American Cancer Society. In recognition of her dedication and hard work, she is listed in Marquis Who's Who. She has also been presented with a Jeanette Ives Erickson Award, and an award from the Massachusetts Chapter of the American Cancer Society. The Massachusetts Area Health Education Center presented Ms. Karp with an award for excellence in Nursing, and she was named Woman of the Year for Bosnian Relief Effort by the Quincy Chapter of Hadassah.

Ms. Karp achieved certification in case management in 2012, earning the credential of Accredited Case Manager from the ACMA.
