March 2014 Honoree
juliet beniga, RN, BSN, CCRN, CNRN
Juliet Beniga is a light to this unit. Her love for God manifests through her acts of love, patience and kindness.
We had a spinal cord injury patient who could move their arms but had no fine motor movement. This patient was a paraplegic and was frustrated with his situation. Juliet felt compassion and created a device to help him eat independently without needing to use his fingers. It was a significant milestone for the patient because he didn't want to depend on anyone for life.
Her patient later came back in a wheelchair, he didn't remember her name but he remembered what she did for her. He never forgot what that moment of independence did for his life.

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