Meet Sherry Berg, 2022 Woman of Distinction

Serving Women and Girls in

Waukesha County since 2004!

Leading, inspiring and changing lives

The 2022 Women of Distinction are inspirational leaders whose vision, dedication and compassion improve our community. We will introduce each honoree before our in-person luncheon May 13.

SHERRY BERG, BSN, RN, CEN

Manager, Emergency Department

ProHealth Waukesha Memorial Hospital

Compassion, patience and caring became apparent early in Sherry Berg. At just 6, she lost her father to cancer and immediately began helping her mom care for five younger siblings. Those qualities steered her to a career in nursing, where she continues to care deeply for the sick, the injured and the traumatized.

As manager of the emergency departments at ProHealth Care hospitals in Waukesha and Mukwonago, she has supported and inspired her staff during the challenges of COVID-19. Her strength, calm demeanor and experience also shone when she was watching the Waukesha Christmas parade and immediately sprang into action to treat marchers and onlookers injured during the tragedy. Then she rushed to Waukesha Memorial, where she mobilized her team to provide care for dozens.

Sherry is described by her supporters as “a natural leader with a deep passion for her community” and lauded as a “person (who puts) her own problems aside and takes on another’s burden.”
