Bells Palsy Hero

by

Nurse Amber, Thibodeaux Regional Medical Center
Nominated by Rhonda Hollier

She just graduated with a BSN in December 2019, and she has a 5-year-old and an 11-month old. She is working at a hospital full-time, including caring for COVID positive patients. Her family is living in an RV next to their house, so she can shower and change in the house when returning from work before mixing with her family in the RV. She recently contracted Bells Palsy that paralyzed the left side of her face, likely caused or exacerbated by the stress of the pandemic.

Compassion, Caring, Hard Work, Commitment, and Sacrifice

by

Nurse Brittney, Methodist Hospital
Nominated by Alyssa Fox

My sister has inspired me by putting her patients before herself! I start nursing school this fall and she has taught me so much of what it means to be a nurse, the compassion, caring, hard work, commitment, and sacrifice that goes along with it! She has been going over practice questions with me every day and allows me to perform assessments on her so I can practice!

She works in the ER in her unit’s outdoor COVID tent and has been putting her safety on the line for her coworkers and patients.

Ultimate Wife, Mother, and Friend

by

Nurse Jess, Hackensack University Medical Center, New Jersey
Nominated by Amy Winters

Jess inspires me every day in regard to her work ethic, natural finesse as a mom, and the most loyal friend a woman can ever have. Jess works on the frontline at one of the busiest hospitals in NJ during the COVID-19 pandemic while caring for her 9-month old son on her minimal off-days. Every night she hurries home from work, has to remove the clothes from the hospital, and scrub down in the shower before she can even greet her husband and baby boy before he is laid down to sleep for the night. Jess is the ultimate wife, mother, and friend. Anyone who knows Jess is lucky to have her in their lives.

Putting Others First, As Always

by

Nurse Jenna, Fort Memorial Hospital
Nominated by Sara Tincher

I nominate RN nurse Jenna. She has inspired me by switching to impatient care during this difficult time. This choice to work the front lines was not easy as she has two small boys at home. Previously, she was working outpatient care. She could have chosen to keep her family safe and not go to inpatient care. However, the need was there and she put others first, as she always does. She is truly an inspiration!
