Ferdinand Velez is an excellent nurse who is always willing to help others. He always has a positive attitude and is very empathetic to his patients. He is always smiling and always willing to help and take an extra load. Regardless of how busy he is, he always shows how a positive attitude makes the difference in the day. Patients and families speak well of him.

I will never forget a patient who was mentally challenged and was being accompanied by his elderly mother day and night. The mother was so tired and distraught with her son's acute illness that she was crying. Ferdinand Velez went out of his way to comfort her by giving her a hug and a shoulder to cry on.
