BOSTON –  Bozhena Kogan of Framingham was recognized in the annual “Salute to Nurses” published in the Boston Globe for her impeccable work as a Senior Director of Nursing at Hebrew Rehabilitation Center in Roslindale.

Kogan was nominated by her colleague, Ross Mangilog, RN Nurse Manager for her leadership. In his “Salute to Nurses” nomination, Mangilog said, “Being a nursing leader is not an easy task. It’s great to be called a leader but few are actually worthy of this title. Bozhena Kogan, is one of the very few. She started at Hebrew Rehabilitation Center as a naïve new grad nurse and matured into our highly regarded Senior Director of Nursing –Hebrew SeniorLife Rehabilitation Center at our Roslindale campus.”
