September 2020 Honoree
maria pontier elias, RN
After 10 years of going to another facility for infusions, I switched in January 2020 to Bethesda Hospital East. I was concerned about the transition for many reasons, then I met Maria.
Maria combines every trait an amazing nurse should have. Maria's technical IV skills are the best I have ever seen! Her amazing technical skills are combined with her thoroughness, depth of medical knowledge, and compassion. I am a retired RN, so I have experience as a professional and as a patient. Maria exceeds every professional standard.
I was very hesitant to leave but having Maria and her skills made me wish that I would have switched sooner. Maria is the best nurse I have ever seen.

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