Greg Peistrup, MSN, ENP-C, FNP-C, an esteemed and beloved Las Vegas emergency nurse practitioner, mentor, colleague, and friend, died on September 17, 2020, twelve days after testing positive for COVID-19. At the time of his passing, Greg worked for Superior Emergency Physicians at North Vista Hospital. Greg has been a cornerstone in the Las Vegas nursing and health care community for decades, having worked at nearly every hospital in the city. Greg gave selflessly of his time to students and novices in the nursing and nurse practitioner professions, serving as a preceptor to countless Nevada nurses who chose to advance their careers. Working with Greg, it was always known that the patients were in the very best of hands, and as his colleague that it was going to be a good day. His tireless positivity, energy, and humor made every moment with him a joy, even under the most stressful of circumstances.
