Maria C Martinez 2026, BSN, RN

I would like to nominate Maria "Carisa" for the excellent care she provided. After several days in the hospital recovering from surgery, she truly made a difference. Maria was extremely kind, attentive, and careful with my surgical site, always making sure my pain was under control. Maria even tried to speak my language to make me feel more comfortable. Maria constantly checked on my progress, helped me move, and explained every medication and procedure with a calm voice and a warm smile. I saw her caring for many patients with the same dedication. During such a difficult time for me, Maria's compassion and professionalism stood out. Maria exemplifies what an extraordinary nurse looks like. Thank you for your care.
