Small towns and cities in the U.S. may not be where you'd expect a thriving community of international nurses. But that's exactly what you'll find at Decatur Memorial Hospital in Decatur, Illinois.
Shearwater Health partnered with DMH a few years ago to create a new home for over 70 international nurses. This community of nurses has created a significant impact on their workplace, colleagues, community, and family.
During a cold winter week in January of 2020, the Shearwater team spent time documenting the life of three of these nurses to give us a glimpse into what life looks like for an international nurse in the U.S.
