October 2021 Honoree
Autumn D Ritchey, RN
There are not enough good words to say about Dawn. To say she is awesome, great, sweet is just not enough. She has helped me in ways I thought no one else would. She is the most caring person I believe I have ever met. She truly cares about each patient on this unit and will go out of her way to help any of us. She is someone I feel comfortable talking to about anything. She has the ability in my opinion to calm people down and to let them know that things will get better. I guess the best way to put it is that she talks to me just as a person and not as a patient. I have love in my heart for Dawn for all she has done for me. I'm the kind of guy who hates having stubble on my face and she made sure I had the chance to use an electric shaver. Knowing that it was actually affecting the way I felt, she made sure I got to. Small things like that make me feel "human" again. I will never be able to thank her enough.
Thank you, Autumn, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
