I have worked with Linda for a couple of years now and have always appreciated her demeanor and work ethic. However, my nomination is really based on the care my daughter received with Linda as her nurse on two occasions. My daughter was being treated for mental health issues and I felt Linda cared for her with an equal balance of compassion and the reality my daughter needs. Our situation has been ongoing and Linda even asked how I am doing and if I have help dealing with things. It was a question that made me stop and realize that I need extra support for myself as well to get us through. She provided information on therapy for me as my kiddo's caretaker. It was a small gesture that meant so much to me. Linda is a hard worker. I have witnessed her care for her patients as a coworker and personally would love to see her recognized.
