Bradley Petitdos, R.N., is assistant nurse manager of the Emergency Department at Broward Health Coral Springs, where he helps oversee daily operations, staff scheduling and exceptional patient care in one of the hospital’s busiest departments.

A Broward Health team member for nearly 20 years, Petitdos began his career as a paramedic before advancing into nursing. Throughout his career, he has remained committed to clinical excellence and developing the next generation of nurse leaders.

“True nursing leadership is measured not by the authority we hold but by the comfort we provide, the courage we instill and the confidence we inspire in others,” Petitdos said.

In 2025, he helped launch Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) training for ER nurses. In 2026, Petitdos collaborated with fellow leaders to coordinate Operation Night Owl disaster preparedness training, strengthening partnerships with local emergency medical services agencies and enhancing the community’s emergency response capabilities.
