[March 22, 2012]  Sandy Chapman is retiring at the end of this month after a long career at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital.

HardwareChapman took at job in what is now the acute care unit right after finishing nursing school 22 years ago. She went to nursing school in Decatur after her four children had grown. With the exception of five years working day shifts, she has worked nights in acute care her entire career.

Sandy and her husband, Bill, have five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren, and she'll enjoy more time with them when she retires.

"I've got a lot of things I like to do," she said. "I like to work in the garden, and I have crafts I enjoy doing."

Sandy also quilts and crochets, and she plans to travel more in retirement.

There will be a retirement celebration in her honor at ALMH from 2 to 4 p.m. Friday in the Steinfort Rooms. Former co-workers of Sandy's are invited to attend.

ALMH employs 290 in a variety of roles. The hospital is located at 200 Stahlhut Drive and is an affiliate of Memorial Health System.
