July 2016 Honoree
erika mendoza hutto, RN
Erika is a great nurse, I am a thirty seven year old cardiac patient and had to have an emergency cardiac cath, this morning and I was a bit on the down side and since I have no family here, I also get very frustrated because of this disease that I have. I get depressed and mad. Since Erika took over my care this morning she literally went out of her way to make me feel better. She also gave me a smile that made me feel that everything is going to be great; a smile that gives off an aura and vibe that makes one feel good and amazing about oneself inside. She said a prayer with me and with that killer smile she said that she would be here waiting for me, to take care of me. She is a true humanitarian and cares about her patients. She is a nurse because she wants to make this world a better place and she does. She is a true professional and loves her job, but first she is a human with true kindness for others.
Thank you, Erika, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
