"Holly was awesome to me. I felt like I was the only patient on the floor. She not only did her duty by giving the medications on time, but also talked to me and listened. Being a recovering addict and detoxing, I felt really bad about myself, but she didn't treat me like I was "less than" her. She looked at me on the same level eye to eye. Though I barely knew her, I could tell that what she was doing for a living was actually a 'calling'. You blessed me beyond measure. Though I felt undeserving, eventually my self-worth began to be built up on this floor by all the workers and I thought, 'I do deserve the best that God has for me in this life. Just like Holly I can make the right choices.' "

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