Colleague Spotlight: Megan Titcomb, Cardiac ICU

HCA HealthONE Swedish Colleague Spotlight

For more than 100 years, HCA HealthONE Swedish has been a Hampden Avenue landmark. The community of Englewood and the surrounding areas have been turning to Swedish not only for exceptional healthcare, but also for career opportunities. The team culture at Swedish is storied and unique: Many of our colleagues were born at the hospital or have family history of employment. Below, we’d like to share a few of the stories of our amazing colleagues who we have had the privilege to work alongside and care like family.

How long have you worked at Swedish?

4.5 years.

What do you love about working at Swedish?

My coworkers! I work with the best team ever.

What inspired you to pursue the career you have today?

I always thought the science of the human body was fascinating, plus I love making someone's day better. Nursing was a natural fit.

Who has been the biggest influence on your career?

Again, my coworkers, especially my charges and CNCs. They are the best resource.

What do you want people to know about my current department or role?

Just how much teamwork and collaboration it takes to care for ICU patients. It can take five people just to bring one patient to CT.

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Renovating a 1977 RV with my boyfriend, Mason, and hanging out with our dogs Indy and Bodhi!

When you're in the car by yourself and no one is looking, what song do you turn up and sing?

I have an entire playlist dedicated to just this thing. My go-to songs are 'What's love got to do with it' by Tina Turner and 'Love on Top' by Beyonce.

Where did you grow up and what's your favorite thing about that place?

New Hampshire — our state motto is 'Live free or die' — that's pretty cool.
