October 2019 Honoree
francesca borja, RN
Francesca is my tiny angel! While being admitted I got the horrible call that my daughter had been brought to the hospital with a 103 fever and vomiting. I thought about sneaking out of my room, I was so worried and panicking as a mother would. It brought me to tears. Francesca followed me into my room and said, "Ok, come on. I feel horrible." I must have thanked her the whole way to my daughter's room and back. She's my only child. I just wanted to hug her and reassure her that even though I couldn't be physically present, I was there, and she'd be in great hands at Clara Maass, just like I was. Thank you so much, Francesca, from the bottom of my heart, I'll never forget that!
Thank you, Francesca, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
