katy stonehocker, RN

Katy and her team are often unsung heroes. They are our first line of defense in the case of a code, hectic admission, PICC line insertion or emergency C-section. On nights and weekends, they take on the roles of our IT department, our pharmacy, our lab assistant and our materials' management.

Katy is a perfect example of how vital these individuals are to the smooth operation of the nursing department. Despite being pulled in several different directions at once, she is never too busy to assist in any manner required. She is not only a cool head in a storm, an excellent mediator and a skilled nurse, who performs all her responsibilities with a ready smile and a cheerful disposition.
