Friends and team members gathered on Tuesday, February 24, 2026 to formally recognize and congratulate Mary Broussard, RN, recipient of the Wilbur Allain Memorial Stellar Award.

Ms. Mary Broussard truly embodies the spirit of a “Nurse’s Nurse.” As Nurse Educator at IMC, she demonstrates an unmatched commitment to educating, empowering, and uplifting every nurse she encounters. Whether working with a brand-new graduate or a seasoned nurse with decades of experience, Ms. Mary meets them exactly where they are offering thoughtful guidance, practical education, and unwavering support.

She has an incredible ability to anticipate the needs of nurses, ensuring they are equipped with the knowledge and confidence necessary to provide exceptional care to our community. As a caregiver herself, she has built meaningful, lasting relationships with patients and families—so much so that many ask for her by name. Her impact reaches far beyond education; it touches the heart of our community.

Any project at IMC is strengthened by Ms. Mary’s involvement. She is the very definition of a “Yes, I can” leader—approaching every initiative with positivity, dedication, and a genuine desire to see it succeed. Her signature phrase, “How can I help?” reflects her servant leadership and unwavering commitment to teamwork. She willingly volunteers, supports clinical leaders, strengthens policies and processes, and ensures every detail is handled with excellence.

Ms. Mary is the definition of a model IMC employee and a shining example of a true leader. Nursing at IMC is better because of her, and she is more than deserving of recognition as a STELLAR award recipient.

This award is dedicated to our clinical personnel who consistently demonstrate excellence in patient care, embodying the highest standards of professionalism, compassion, and expertise. Named after Wilbur Allain, a revered figure in our organization who epitomized dedication to clinical excellence, this award aims to recognize and celebrate the outstanding efforts of our clinical staff and direct caregivers.
