Some organizations show up for our community every single day, not just during special events, and Mercy Hospital is certainly one of them!

A big THANK YOU to Mercy Hospital for supporting the 40th Annual Berryville Ice Cream Social! 🍦❤️

Whether it's providing quality healthcare, supporting local organizations, sponsoring community events, or investing in the people of Carroll County, Mercy continues to be an incredible community partner.

A special thank you as well to our current Board Secretary, Ashley Hutchison, whose leadership, enthusiasm, and commitment to both Mercy Hospital and the Chamber help strengthen the connection between business, healthcare, and community.

We would also like to recognize Immediate Past Chamber President Tom Guhr for his years of leadership and service to the Greater Berryville Area Chamber of Commerce. Tom's dedication helped strengthen the Chamber and laid the groundwork for continued growth and success.

Thank you to Mercy Hospital, Tom Guhr, Ashley Hutchison, and the entire Mercy team for helping make Ice Cream Social possible and for all you do throughout the year to make Berryville a better place to live, work, and raise a family.

During Healthcare Week, caregivers at Mercy Hospital Berryville and the family clinics in Berryville and Green Forest came together for a friendly food drive competition, and the results were amazing.

💙 Together, we collected 910 shelf-stable food items that will be shared with local blessing boxes across Carroll County, helping support neighbors in need.

👏 A big congratulations to our winning team, "Nacho Average Team" from outpatient, cardiac rehabilitation, physical therapy and facility maintenance services — they’ve earned a well-deserved pizza party!

Thank you to every caregiver who participated. Your generosity, teamwork and commitment to our community truly make a difference. 💫

As Nurse’s week comes to a close, we honor Florence Nightingale,born May 12, 1820 ,whose legacy continues to shape the heart , the art and the science of nursing around the world.
Known as “The Lady with the Lamp,” Nightingale became a symbol of compassion during the Crimean War, moving quietly through dim hospital wards at night, tending to wounded soldiers and offering comfort where fear and suffering were constant companions.
But alongside that image of quiet light, there is another story remembered in accounts from soldiers and hospital staff, “The Lady with the Hammer.” This was a nickname reflecting her fierce determination to break through barriers that stood between patients and survival. When supplies were locked away, delayed, or withheld, she was known to demand access and, when necessary, forcefully intervene, including breaking into locked supply rooms to secure bandages, food, and essentials for the wounded.
That nickname reflects something essential about Florence Nightingale: she was not only compassionate, but uncompromising when lives were at stake.
She was a reformer who challenged systems that accepted preventable suffering. She fought for sanitation, accountability, hospital reform, and evidence based care — often confronting military and government authority directly.
Through her efforts , nursing found both its heart and its backbone:
▪️The lamp representing compassion, presence, and comfort
▪️The hammer representing courage, advocacy, and the refusal to accept “that’s how it is” when lives could be saved
Together, they define a legacy that still lives in nursing today.
▪️Every nurse who comforts a patient while also speaking up for safety, dignity, and proper care carries forward both truths of her story.
The Nurses Honor Guard is proud to recognize and honor all those who came before us and those carrying the light forward today.
🕯️A light lit in the service of others does not go out….
