Rita Gutowski spent her entire nursing career in DuBois hospitals. She started in 1966 at DuBois Hospital and worked for 54 years during which DuBois Hospital evolved into DuBois Regional Medical Center and Penn Highlands DuBois. The Gutowski affiliation with nursing continued through Rita’s daughter, Mary Shaffer, who is currently employed as a nurse at Penn Highlands DuBois.
