November 2023 Honoree
Dawn Westfahl, RN
After traveling here to Hutchinson from our permanent home in Wisconsin, I found myself with an extreme health emergency. My husband, a retired physician, and myself, a retired nurse, immediately recognized we needed health care fast. After emergency surgery, we were admitted, and I was truly blessed to have Dawn assigned as my nurse. Her professionalism and fantastic knowledge immediately helped put us at ease. She is one of the most technically knowledgeable nurses I have come across in 40 years of practice. In addition, she reached me on a human level. I knew she really was caring about ME (not just a job). I credit part of my quick recovery to her professional and personal expertise.
Thank you, Dawn, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
