Interim HealthCare Names 2025 Nurse of the Year

Interim HealthCare Inc., the nation’s leading network of home care, senior care, home health, hospice and medical staffing services, announced Legare Boyle, RN, as its 2025 Nurse of the Year.

A registered nurse at Interim HealthCare of the Upstate in Greenville, South Carolina, Legare is awarded for her exceptional work with patients and their families and her deep commitment to the health, well-being and comfort of her community following a natural disaster in 2024.

“Nurses like Legare are invaluable in the healthcare world,” said Beth Landry, CEO of Interim HealthCare servicing Upstate and Midlands of South Carolina and Atlanta, Georgia (Hospice Only). “She is honest, transparent and consistent in her approach, creating an environment where patients not only receive the care they need, but also feel confident receiving it. The admiration for Legare is not exclusive to our office or patients either – her extraordinary dedication is lauded by the greater medical community in our area. We are proud that a nurse as beloved as Legare represents our company, setting a high standard for patient-centric care.”

Legare has worked with Interim HealthCare of Greenville, South Carolina for five years, where she has quickly become a staple of the office. She is an expert at both providing care and creating strong relationships with patients and their families. Legare has earned the reputation of a staunch patient advocate and is known for working tirelessly to secure newer and more efficient medical devices for her patients to improve their quality of life and health.

Legare’s excellence goes beyond her dedication to patients through her investment in the well-being of her neighbors. Following Hurricane Helene, she demonstrated exceptional leadership skills by mobilizing quickly to organize a drop-off location for medical supplies, food, water and more, ensuring that people had access to essential items after the disaster. When the weather made highways in her area impassable, she found creative ways to navigate back roads to deliver supplies to North Carolina residents in need.

“Being named Interim HealthCare’s 2025 Nurse of the Year is an incredible honor,” said Legare Boyle. “I am grateful for the chance to make a difference every day – whether it is being an active member of the Greenville community or helping patients and their families feel truly cared for and heard. Working alongside such a dedicated team in a place I love makes this recognition especially meaningful to me.”

Interim HealthCare annually honors a nurse in its organization who exemplifies the true heart of nursing and the company’s core values of integrity, compassion, customer focus, innovation and responsibility. The company evaluated nominations for exceptional nurses from Interim HealthCare locations across the country to determine this year’s winner.
