John received multiple nominations, one nomination from a patient's family member shared: "John has been a wonderful caregiver for my father while he was in CCU with congestive heart failure. He was so kind and patient, taking the time to explain all the medications, test results, and procedures. He made sure our entire family understood his care plan, even taking the time to speak with my sisters over the phone. He made an awful experience more bearable and less scary. We truly appreciated his kindness and exceptional care."

A local nursing student wrote a nomination: "John has such a positive energy. He is definitely a team player and makes sure the nurses around him are doing okay. He was right there with me to walk me through the difficult task of setting up several IV lines. That can be nerve-racking for a nursing student, but John's support made all the difference. Every time I work with him, he takes the time to speak with me and have a real conversation. I appreciate him so much."
