November 2016 Honoree
diana jedlicka, BSN, RN
Throughout my stay at Valley Medical, Diana showed so many qualities of a top-tier nurse. She's compassionate, understanding, and very organized, and it was extremely clear that I was always in the back of her mind. She controlled my symptoms better than any other nurse and the best part of her was that she had a way of making me feel like a person she cared about, not just a patient.
I overheard patients talking to Diana from other rooms and she dealt with them the same she did for me - with love and care. That takes a very special person. She has changed my outlook on my job also. I have a stressful job, but watching her do what she does with such grace, made me realize how much better and understanding I can be in my job, hopefully resulting in less stress. Diana made my stay relaxing instead of stressful.

Thank you, Diana, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
